eddiesolo Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Here is my latest build. A Airfix 1/12 tractor, I had already made one years ago and enjoyed it very much so decided to get another. To this one I have added: Mats, rear lights, decals to the engine bay, PE lettering for the FORD badge, all painted and weathered. So, hope you like Si:) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 What an old rust-bucket. I like it! The totally knackered look suits it well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Delta 210 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I had to do some research, as I didn't realise that Airfix had produced a tractor kit! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did one from the spin off Shaun the Sheep from Wallace and Gromit, they only did a limited run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not doing much, but with the weather slightly better taking time in the work shed to do stuff, although it takes a while. This is a runner, just a workhorse so a bit battered 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louiex2 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Excellent work. I'm sure glad some of the chaps confirmed Airfix actually make a kit of the tractor because I was thinking it was a 1:1 scale and you used a drone to get the overhead shots. The I❤Gothamcity bumper sticker is a nice touch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a decal set from the 'Joker' 1/24 car and thought that would look cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
