Post by: Erkut Baykal on April 07, 2012, 07:21:18 AM
These 1:87 scale Wiking forklifts where a gift from a dear friend.They were going to work on Baylands yard.To be honest they were a bit crude so I weathered them;

That's a very impressive job of weathering some really tiny surfaces in a very controlled manner!  Nice work on the metal body and tires.  The steering wheel & column stick out a bit.  Smaller column would be nice if you have the patience, but a bit of coloring would be an improvement (even just to fade/dull/gray out the stark black).  Well done!  -- Dallas
