Hey David, welcome to armorama !

Thats a fine little build you've got there. I've seen these types of small diggers before- is it 1/32 scale and is it in resin?

What do you plan to do with it?

Looking good so far. Some paint and it can look great.

It looks like the digger is the 1/32 Fujimi Mini Excavator kit.


Here is what a member at Missing-Links, Spencer Pollard, did with the same kit.



You can see more of his dio here.

Saw that last year Gino, and in Military In Scale too- Spencer's work is pretty cool. I thought this was the Fujimi one when I saw it. Its a well detailed little kit thats for sure.

Hi all.

Thanks for all the reply.

This is the Fujimi kit and I intend to build a diorama by putting together it on a Trumpter LMTV. Waiting to lay my hand on the LMTV though.

Initially, I wanted to detail the GT24 with hoses and other stuff like shelther and spot light but can't find pictures on line.

Anyway, I will painting her next week end together with my 1151 and M113 OIF.

Cheers!!

David,

That's looking great, I also am after the same truck you mentioned, I know its rare online. You got me thinking now as I've never thought of using 1/32 scale, im guessing the difference isn't really noticeable lol time for a eBay resale i think! Can't wait to see how your digger comes out.
