Heres my latest custom! I had made one of these along time ago and really rushed it so it turned out really quite rubbish!
This one ive been working on for about 2 months and its turned out much better than the first! It may not be perfect but im happy with it and thats all that counts!
Group of 3 excavators to get Boxing rings and Vandal Guards!
the JS330 isnt finished yet but will probably post more pics once it is!
Something ive been working on!

Re: Something ive been working on!
The body on the 330 is the most time consuming! Takes a lot of filling and sanding to get it looking right! Must have taken me 3 weeks to get it to that point!
I like the 220 with the black rams much more than the yellow! Need to get my hands on an updated version!

Re: Something ive been working on!
Did you alter the bonnet? What did you make the cab care cages from? Styrene? I want the new one but it's a lot of money for a model that's just had the rear end painted black. With nzg making jcb models again I'm hoping for a js too

Yeh the guards are just styrene mate! Non functional obviously but they do make the model look better! The bonnet is a custom piece! Total rebuild!
I agree it is a fair amount of cash for the rebadge model! Still going to get one at some point!
I would like to see a JS by NZG but I get the feeling that would be an expensive model! I personally want either a 130 or 175W but can't see either happening!

I'm in the process of building a js 130 t4 version maybe a while though. Need to acquire a js cab from somewhere. Or a cheap 220. Guards do look spot on mate gonna give them a go myself.
Grant nzg are making a 535-125 loadall and the new jcb 86c midi excavator

Re: Something ive been working on!
That's going to be my next model I think! I need a couple of 220's as I've got the body of a JZ255 that needs finishing!
What are you using for a base model! Cx130 or 312b?
Isn't the silver 220 over 100 quid?
I have never seen a pic of the real midi nzg are making! I'd never heard of it!
