convo

you just looked as if you had a keen intrest in it all 

yes josh it was good to put faces to forum members ,i think we have a up and coming conversion specialist in you josh , ;)

these are push a long but as you know they also do a man but only in remote control ,to buy a push along , if you shop around you might be able to get hold of one for around £65 ,

hey i am sure we will meet up again some time that is for sure ,i was flat out at spalding and did not stop talking all day , but what a great show i hope it was worth your journey over ,

yes your probably right ,but as you know johny from when you see my table at spalding , i am a siku freak and this conversion is just to show i do not just paint tractor blue ,white , red ,orange and black . :D

getting there :)

cheers joe i found just what i was looking for , any way back to it ,

yer i just thought i would entertain you all with a picture of my little lad Easter cake competition ,while you are waiting for the next instalment , ;D

primer

;D well i dont just paint blue ,white ,red , black ,orange green ,smurf blue  tractors 

well just for a change i thought i would post a full project ,if any body can post a better picture for me that will be mint of a 8 wheeled fendt 926 favorit

i have two siku fendts 930 and they are a dark green compared to the ones you can buy to day in the shops ,they came from a old shop that was selling up and they were just part of a job lot i bought that day ,it was not until i removed five 930s from the boxes to mess around with, two were a total different green but original and sealed boxes .i think at siku they must have had a doggy mix of paint that day or something,i still have them and have never see any since  ???

Gregor send me a picture of what you want and a size of what area it needs to fit and i should be able to sort you some out ,please see my conversions on the quality of my stickers they are cut from vinyl  and laser printed with exterior ink,they are also pre cut so no messing around with craft knifes

yes when you have the truck striped right down that would be possible,they are screwed in from behind,

yes me and my lot will call in for some pints or three or five  :P but i think we are going to the chinese in town for food ,i have been before it really is good .

more great work peter,the dirty windscreen,do you spray it and then with something the same length as the windscreen wiper,just turn it through its arc?

no i mask the window wiper pass first ,then once it is dry remove the mask ,works really well i think ,you will get a better chance to have a look at these at spalding this weekend 

Great work there, what spray/technique have you used?

i use real paint not the water base stuff that does not stick very well,this paint i use makes it look wet /damp and dry in places 

yes i thought the 6920 was struggling a bit ,so i got out the big guns 

Maserati blue  ;) yellow knob to paint and stickers to finnish

blue / white  ;)

just a dirty girl  ;D

barry come and see me at spalding and i will show you 2 products and demonstrate to you., you will be very very impressed with ,one is Q bond and the other is a two part clear glue made by wurth and i can get them at cost price  ;)

well every man and his dog has a green jd or 20 on the shelf at home ,well i just like to be countervail ;D

i like the different colours of contractors ,utilities,liveries and i am amazed at all the colour schemes firms use ,i could always just add some wheels ,beacons ,weights etc etc to base models  ???

just topline sticker to put on for now
