Canon Creative Park Komatsu Wheel Loader and Bulldozer

[nikischutt]

I've built all 4 of the Canon Komatsu vehicles, they're very nice to build. You've done a nice job on them.

Just one small criticism, post your pics at a lower resolution, they're huge! (takes forever to load) 1024x768 should be alright.

But keep the models coming!

If you want to get into even higher detail, or smaller sizes, you can go for laser cut rivets/bolts/nuts which is what I'll be using for my next model because it requires nut heads smaller than any of my punches can handle.
