This really came out nice! It really reminds me of the AMT 1/25 model kit. Keep up the great work.

Hey Jason. For some reason your video and my phone don't want to play together. But it does work on the iPad.
Just so ya know. Mike

Ps. I wanted that load by the shop and not the rock wall. Go build a loader and move it please.
