I already had the Gaz Evans grapple and needed a machine to put it on. The grapple is rated at 100T so grabbed this Liebherr R9100.

I added the grapple, cab guards, fire suppression units, armoured hoses and some ram guards.

Over this weekend i added some warning decals to the rear of the counterweight and some small spotlights on the counterweight and at the rear of the cab.

I like the way you have done the armoured hoses spot on.

That looks a great model! Even better with all the detail on it!

Very nice Martin - what did you use for the spot light lens'?

Thanks for the comments lads,

Dave, I used tiny plastic gems you can buy in craft shops, they are round so I had to file the edges down to a square and then stick them inside some cut down brass box section. Fiddly job!
