Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'.....(1/35 Road Rollers)

Thanks Gordon,

But your's does have a scraper bar...was just looking at it trying to see if I could bend it in closer to the roller... Will likely add a second one, as I want to add a spring tensioned bar between them.

The shields are something I saw on two of the ref. rollers. I also noticed in a couple of pics that some rollers had a larger ring on the roller side surface that looks like it was for the same purpose.

I kind of goofed/got over-zealous in adding the shields, as they are deeper than the roller surface edge, so I can now not remove the roller for painting separately    The shields also tend to stiffen the frame just enough, that I can't bend/flex it enough to get the axle pins on the roller, to pop out of their sockets on the frame   ....ought to make for an "interseting" and fidgety painting experience.

Beautiful work Marc. Gordon has got me looking at rollers and this just looks so right, can't wait to see you paint it.
