I find these Emhar model trucks quite amusing. They build well and the fit is generally very good. Good plastic as well!
The decals on this one were a challenge. Not because they are quite old, but they were a bit of a faff. Each panel line was four parts: top, bottom, left and right. Getting all the ends to meet was, erm. challenging. A couple did loose a tiny bit at the end which just vanished!
Paint was good old (well new actually) Humbrol gloss.
Next one will be ...?
Hope you like it and comments are most welcome. I Know I have a dust problem!!!
 
That is lovely - my foray into civilian lorries was (shall we say) unsuccessful but yours is most excellent!

Lovely job on that one Ian. Great livery as well. Always amuses me that the owners go to great length and expense to decorate the truck, then take it to a quarry somewhere and drop five tons of aggregate all over it 😁
 
My word thats a cracker!

Nice to see something different and i always wondered what these turn out like
 
Really liking that Ian. I have one of these to do at some point and made the flat bed version a couple of years back. I wish there were more old civvie truck kits out there...
