Geeeezo....this is stunning. any chance of a video? I know most operations are done by hand, but would still be nice to have a video

Yes, of course, i work on the Video. I want to show especially the beacons - flashing lights in motion, I forgot to take a picture with: lighting - on.

Incredible build, one of the best vehicle MOCs I've seen! Great pictures too. May I ask how long it took to make this? Also have you shared it with the SJFD?

Approximately 5 months. I have not sent it at the Moment to any SJFD Station :) , but I can try to give it to their Attention...

It wasn't very quick until I realised I'm looking at LEGO model already. Great attention to all the details. Did you paint some pieces?

Chrome parts are sprayed with a chromespray. But my first decision was, that all Chrome parts i buy in the Bricklink shop. After the counting of all the necessary components would it cost me 200 - 300 euros. It was too much. And many parts in that color does not exist. Then i turned on Mr. Spray :) These parts are sprayed: front-rear bumper, wheels, fender rims, handles, mirrors holder...)

WOW, what a beautiful model, I had to look twice to see it was a Lego truck.

Really captured the details on it, must be a great feeling to have it in your collection.

Do you have any video with your fire truck?

Congratulations

Just amazing. Really love prototypes - they're bright and are of quite an unusual shape for European cities, but the MOC is even more astonishing.

Wonderful model. Inspires me to aim for greater realism with my technic models. Thanks for sharing.

I know the movie... in my opinion probably the best movie about firefighters.

I was thinking about it during the construction, but motorization would bring some compromises. And for example the platform with a ladder would not look realistic.

(and one of the other things is that the model is very heavy)

I am finishing up my next MOC, and it will be fully RC.

Just saw this in the hall of fame, and don't know why it didn't get more attention - this is fantastic!
