What an impressive collection of wonderfully finished ladders and equipment. Your eye for details is astonishing.
As it comes to the figures I also agree with the others: Cut their throats!

Thank you my friends for your opinions.  :)
Figures have all parts glued by Blue Tack, because I wanted to see how they look. Just now I'm going to make them. Of course, their necks will be cut to size.

I thought that those ladders and supports had been made from wood! I had to go back to check that they are plastic!! Brilliant work. Agree about the problems with the figures though.

Juan and Stephen Thank you for your opinions, they are an encouragement for further work.
I think that problem with necks is solved.  ;)



I did a little improvement on the ladder, I added metal reinforcement and "screwed" them by screws from Taurusmodels.





In the figurines I filled in  castings defects.



I took out from the hands of unnecessary items.  ;)





Because the hands will be held a ladder.







Then followed preparation for painting figures.





After application of the primer, there was a painting the suits, it will be airbrush painting, by using paints Lifecolor.





In the meantime, I make different arrangements of settings my dioramas. I saw on the picture wooden crane to lift the engine, it looks like you can see in my picture.



In my opinion, a wooden crane with three legs would have been too high.

I already bought a block and chain to the winch.



Currently figurines are painted on the base color, now will be, shading and painting details. Soon I will show pictures.

This is coming on very nicely. I love the small details such as the screws - small items that make a large difference!

Some really great work here Adam, changing the articulation of the figures is a real challenge but your results make it look easy! Where did you source the block and tackle, an Aber product?
Cheers,

Currently figurines of mechanics are almost ready. I have to make corrections.
A few photos of painting miniatures.











Now I started to build wooden crane, at the beginning I began to do the winch.

The level of detail that you have achieved is mind - blowing! I also think that the figures are considerably improved too. Excellent modelling.
