Thanks guys - and thanks to Fred for the inspiration.

I think there's a misunderstanding I wanted a distinct color difference between the crane and the vehicle, to hint that the crane was an add-on sourced from some surplus HEMTT or equivalent. Eh. It's obvious indoors.

@guy, those pictures give me an idea for a future build!

Glad to be of help.  It's an odd feeling to have positively inspired someone... :unsure:

Maybe it's part of my carefully cultivated plan for world domination.

I swear blind there was an Elstree Studio's comedy in the 50/60's based on that concepte. The brain has started a whirring  ;D

Oh, is that how it's done? I'm on my way, then...
We could have a contest about it, if either of us could be bothered...  ;D
