Post subject:  Possible Breakdown Crane model kit

Hi all,

First of all, my apologies for my English, not good all the time and scarce in technical terms. I hope to have the chance to improve it.

I have seen what you're doing here, in this modelling chapter. Is very impressive, challenging and inspiring. Amazing ... is what I can say.

As I already told you, I'm a master maker. And I wish to make some Breakdown Cranes. British, of course. I already have a small background on this subject and, most of all, I have Peter Tatlow's Great Book. However, I feel that I need more ... of advices, tips, things that I don't know and others.

I have in mind two models:
- Highland Railway 15 ton Cowans Sheldon
- Ransomes & Rapier 35 ton

I'm thinking at OO gauge models, for the moment. The kits will be done in resin. We're thinking at a multi media kit. You'll see this during the work. What I can tell you is that we have some experience, we're doing resin models for over 10 years. I'm speaking of me and a friend of mine, the one responsible with the resin casting.
Even so, we're open to any kind of suggestion.

Of course, pics will be posted here for debate and criticize.

Cheers,
Alex
