Htrag Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Pictured here is my compact excavator. It is based loosely on John Deere models, but is not modeled after any specific machine. Enjoy! Compact Excavator_7 by H-Trag, on Flickr Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Wow this excavator is amazing! Awesome realization! Quote
sneff Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Why cant Lego do models like that?? Great job!! Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Very realistic excavator Htrag! Do the tracks turn alright on it's drive "gears"? Quote
Htrag Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 Very realistic excavator Htrag! Do the tracks turn alright on it's drive "gears"? Thanks for the feedback, everyone! The tracks will turn. The "gears" are just standard small rims, but they do the trick! Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Neat little machine 'Htrag', I like realism indeed ! Excellent designing to minifig scale as well......Brick On Dig On ! Quote
tomdobs55 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Not crazy about the tipper, a little boring if you ask me, but the Excavator is very well done. I like the tracks a lot. Edited October 25, 2012 by tomdobs55 Quote
Htrag Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 The tipper was just a side project...I've never actually seen any vehicle like that. Visit my Flickr site for more images of the excavator. Quote

Yeah I've never seen anything like it either, I'm loving the excavator after seeing the Flickr stuff, I don't know what it is but I'm just loving it. It looks great with the unimog you have. I love your snow trucks too. Quote
solta Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I just love this excavator. Adorable little thing. Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Nice job, especially with the little truck by the side! I love how the container is in front of the driver Quote
soccerkid6 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Very realistic excavator I especially like the cockpit design Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Very cool digger what size of machine did you base it on? Quote
Wedge09 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I love it :wub_drool: Small but absolutely detailed Quote
Htrag Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Very cool digger what size of machine did you base it on? Something like a Deere 60D or 75D. It was really hard to keep the cab height down, but I think it isn't too tall for the relative scale. Quote
