I finished my Lionel Construction Crane kit (6-12900). This is a replica of a P & H construction crane mounted on a truck frame. As purchased, the kit contains pieces molded in 4 colors. The boom is black. Crane cab, truck cab, outrigger feet, and wheel hubs are orange. Truck frame and cab base are gray. The colors looked too artificial and shiny for me, so I changed things up. The crane and cab body were painted in Weirton Steel green. The remaining components were painted flat black and the crane was equipped with my electro-magnet. It will see duty around the mill collecting scrap. Only the decals and spray of Dullcote are left to do.
