Hi everybody,
I built this bulldozer to use it in my next comic. How do you like it?

It has big trucks...

...a big yellow blade...

...a nice bi-colored ladder (I used up all the other black grills in another model, and I was left with this 2 only :-D )...

...and lots of other details I won't bother you listing them here ;-) .

Yes, that part was a bit of an after-thought. I'll try to improve it before I take the pictures for the comic :-$

Wow, I guess those are pretty big. I might make one too, but still  bit smaller to fit my city. I guess the bulldozer has something to do with getting sinner out of the cave? 8-°

Patience, young padawan. In time you'll come to learn the truth ;-)




Btw, of course, you're right :-P

Glad to see someone making construction equipment. its not bad but i would change the cab. have the minifig sit down and make it more like a car in terms or size. otherwise the scale is pretty good for a dozer that is used on construction sites.

if u want to find some good inspiraton goole image search CAT bulldozers.

Thanks for the comments and advices, Optikal Illushun.

I built it in 15 minutes, and I made it this way to look a bit cartoonish :-D

I think I'll improve it a bit before I can call it finished, but the dimentions will be maintained :-)


Btw: I didn't search for inspirational images (sometimes I do and sometimes not), and I think it shows X-D

Can you post pictures of the Updated verison shown in the comic? Is it just me or does it have penumatics?
