Andy Moore Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Yanmar YT5113A Hasegawa 1/35 Hasegawa's new Yanmar Tractor, the first release from their agricultural range which sits alongside the construction machinery range they launched a couple of years ago. It's a fantastic little kit with some amazing detailing, particularly in the cab. The only thing I didn't care for was Yanmar's rather gaudy colour scheme of candy red metallic body panels and gold wheels, so it had to get muddy, as any self-respecting tractor should be. The kit's also rather good value if you order it from HLJ, less so if you get it in the UK where it's almost double the price. Thanks for looking Andy 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Svedberg Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) Very nice! I especially like the wiper strike pattern on the muddy rear window. Great overall mud treatment!! Edited March 30, 2019 by Svedberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeroenS Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Love it. It's gorgeous, just beautiful. Right down to the scratches on the doors to break the mud pattern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natter Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Windscreen wiper sweeps on military models never look 'right', but on your tractor they're perfect. The same can be said for the 'just right' mucky floor mat, the seat and cab inner panels, the marks in the mud on the door windows, the wet mud on the tyres around the wheel rims, the washer bottle (?) at the rear of the cab, the dusty mucky outline of the YANMAR logo on the rear of the cab; everything right down to the cat gif in your signature - ace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Vale Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Lovely work as always. With the big doors it has a certain "Dumbo" vibe, which is charmingly at odds with the racey styling. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goggsy Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 As someone who lives among tractors I’d say that’s absolutely spot on, you’ve really nailed it. The only addition I’d suggest is a few bits of farm related junk scattered about the cab, a few tools, maybe a bit of John Robert. Oh and some energy drink cans, most farmers I know live on the stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was out a run recently and found one agricultural worker sitting in his pickup in a remote lonning perusing a “gentleman’s interest” magazine. Perusing with vigorous intensity, one might say. Country ways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly appeared to be polishing something anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Model Farmer Editor Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 A cracking build Andy. Would it be possible to get in touch with me as I would like to feature your build in the Model Farmer magazine, one of the modelling titles from Guideline Publishing.
