This is the first time for me to tackle a complete resin kit. And when I look at the individual parts, it will be a real challenge. There is an extreme amount of rework needed on each part. Hope I can get it to work.

Finn
Best of luck, it will be interesting to follow

Michael Kohl
I am in too

Robert Podkoński
I will watch with pleasure and interest too.

A 3D-printed PZL Dromader???!!! Following for sure!! (The Grand Models cast-resin kit is perhaps above my skills - and I still wait for the Karaya injection one...). Your ag-aircraft & ground equipment dio will turn... monumental! 👍

Marcel Klemmer
Very interesting project👍 I am in

Villiers de Vos
Very nice progress on an unusual subject.

Chris T. An
Thank you all for watching. Alex, I also saw the Grand Models kit for the M18, but I was frightened from some build reviews, there is a lot of rework to do on that kits. I have now the same or a bit more work, but I got the 3D file for free from Thingiverse.

I am really not a Pro in sratch building but I will try to engrave some panel lines and add some more greeblies to the plane. The 3D file is very poor in details.

Alex K
Nice progress! 👍

Robert Podkoński
Fantastic Dromader! (I wish I had one... I have no access to 3d printing, alas...😭 )

Chris T. An
Robert, you can have a look to the Grand Models resin kits. I am much more disappointed that there is no kit in 1:72 and no 3D file of a PZL 106 Kruk. I would spend some money on that because it would fit perfect to the Dromader and Cmelák.

Robert Podkoński
Actually, that is something that makes me angry too - I would love to see (and buy) decent kits of "Wilga" and "Kruk" (not mentioning PZL M-15 "Belphegor" 😉 )... but apparently no Polish manufacturers are interested in preparing these.

Alex K
Guys... let's look a bit at the bright side: who would have thought a few years ago that one day (today!) there would be kits of the Cmelak, the Dromader, the Grumman AgCat (in both 1:72 & 1:48!!!), the Piper Pawnee?! Some are short-run, some are cast-resin, some are 3D-files-to print - nevertheless, something is slowly moving towards that direction! So, yes, I do hope too there will be someday a Kruk available in 1:72 or a Belphegor! And your buys of such kits and your modelling work proves that there's some interest in such topics! Keep it up! 👍

Robert Podkoński
You're right, Alex 🙂 "Always look on the bright side of life..." 😉

Robert Podkoński
I am afraid there is a spelling error on the decals, Chris... I see "Dromedar" instead of "Dromader"... The plane looks awesome!

Chris T. An
Robert, I can understand that it is confusing, but in the GDR, "Dromedar" was actually used. This is the German translation of the word. Feel free to search for pictures of it, here would be an example: [img1]

Robert Podkoński
I have not known about that, sorry Chris... That's really interesting.

Alex K
Nice trivia... and as Robert said: it looks awesome!

Bernhard Schrock
Dromader: An outstanding result from such a simple kit!

Neuling
Everything top notch here! But what about the excavator? May a combined diorama?

Chris T. An
The excavator is still coming. I haven't dared to go any further yet. Let's see, maybe I'll get motivated again in the fall/winter. 😉

Neuling
👍

Michael Kohl
Very well done Dromedar. Anxious about the excavator.

Villiers de Vos
Fantastic work on the crop duster.

Chris T. An
It is not easy to find out with which lettering the excavator was delivered in the color used in the respective year of construction. I'll have to see which decals I print out.

Ben M
What a great project! You got an amazing result with the 3d printed aircraft.

Mark Sherwood
That's excellent, I operate a CAT M3050 Material Handler at work, very similar. Weathering on the grabs are spot on. 🥸👍

skyfox22
nice job the lizzy's one of my top five

skyfox22
looks like you had a bit of trouble with the decals try getting micro set and sol it helped me

Ian Robinson
Decals were all fine when they went on but the kits have been in storage in the garage for several years,. Although they are covered, the weather has taken its toll…..

skyfox22
still a good build though

Marcel
Shame the decals don't hold. I'd thought varnish would protect them. Paint looks still good though, so with some new decals she'll be as good as new!

skyfox22
actually that's a good point varnish probably should have

Ian Robinson
They are so old they probably predate me knowing about varnish other than Airfix tins of it which were horrible!

Many new skills learned since then! When I get time I will restore all of these old kits to current skill levels….

Landlubber Mike
Wow, that's spectacular!! Makes me think about giving up modeling!

Lebloge
Totally agree with Mike !! 🫡

Pepe
Great!!!!

J35J
Mindblowing! Congrats to an excellent build!👍🏻

Doubtingmango
The figures and stowage are spectacular!

Mr James
Mike says it all. Outstanding detail expertly done

Ben M
Holy cow, that's outstanding!

Neuling
Excellent work. Inspiring details to see here. Reason to keep on modelling! 🙂

Robert H.
many thanks guys 🙏🙏🙏 glad you like it, keep on modeling !!

Guy Rump

mschwery
A very lively model!

Marcin Dudek
Holly smokes, I can't takę my eyes off all those cool details. Greate job 👏

Michael Kohl
Well, nothing to add actually. Just splendid.
