Why is the color "medium azure"? The "medium azure" will be the color scheme for my construction theme. It's striking and different.
This model is inspired by the "Fendt tractor" model. Seen it's documentary of fracturing inspires me to build this. This will only fit one Minifigure. The loader and bucket do have articulation. Manage to fix in the hydraulic parts but not as realistic as the real model. I decided to custom build the loader and the bucket as well. It will look better using the pre-made parts for that. For now, I just prefer this look.
The backhoe swings back to take out another section of the old Marlton Kmart Garden Shop. The blocks show the building's original color.

An actual JCB (J.C. Bamford Excavators Ltd.) backhoe, as featured in the Nizlopi song and animated video "The JCB Song", parked in the parking lot of the Merivale Road Food Basics supermarket after a massive early December snowstorm.
You can see a huge snow pile behind the JCB, but I think that one was probably produced by a snowplow attachment, not the shovel seen on front of this particular vehicle.
I like how the JCB looks "alive" and cheerful compared to the bleakness of the rest of the shot.
This shot is actually an Autostitch composite, for maximum detail.
I was late to the "Grand Opening" of the Lansdowne Town Center because of the rain and when I got there, everyone was packing up and there were no more free samples to munch on. I decided to check out some of the construction nearby instead. Before I knew it, over two hours had gone by - who knew it would be that interesting.
This is a backhoe I found that was blocking an unfinished road that lead to big piles of brush and dirt.
An early JCB product- a 3 model backhoe new in 1962 and based on a Fordson as far as I can gather.
Fairly rare with the round rear wheel-arches, the first 3CX's followed these ones.

Moving from one site to another.
Seen at the under-construction interchange between Highway 41 and Highway 45 in Oshkosh, WI. June 20, 2011.
A whopping 14 years ago, I built a 1/22 scale JCB backhoe loader. Over the years, I updated it a bit, but it is mostly unchanged. Here it is together with my much newer minifigure scale model of essentially the same vehicle.

Big Surprise, this morning, my brother-in-law
shows up with a small backhoe and instructs
the operator to start pushing the jungle back.
This is on the east side of our home where a
great number of cobras/critters come from !
Well, they also come from the river too ;-0-
Brother-in-law had this equipment at his
place yesterday also doing some cleaning.
His place is 100 +/- meters from our place.
All the same compound where family lives.
This only pushes the jungle back a little ways
and true to form it will be growing back soon.
He cleared back about 20 or 30 feet of jungle.
Now don't get me wrong, we are still surrounded
by a huge amount of jungle with the same river in
front. But this shaves off a section full of cobras !
Every little bit helps ;-)---

The backhoe makes its way around the old Garden Shop at the former Marlton Kmart, kicking off the building's demolition.
Block from the Busy City pattern.
40x56. More info on the blog www.teaginnydesigns.blogpspot.com and available in my etsy shop.
Built for a building demolition module in a City diorama.
The backhoe cannot be rotated as there will never be a need for it. The model was built exclusively for the demolition scene and nothing else.
Thank You!
