[Fendthead]

Well after the flail...it had to be done, not going to do to much just a little cab detailing and the get some mud on it.

Looks lovely. Like the weathering inside the cab. Really finishes the model off.

[Fendthead]

Yer there is a fair amount of airbrushing going on after the filler

anyway done a bit more tonight

That looks incredible!  Fair play mate having the guts to do it. I'd fear wrecking my models beyond being able to turn them back original as a last resort.

[Fendthead]

Yer that can be a bit of a worry thats why I have used a UH for my first try, Got my eye on a wiking 936 next, But I also have plans for another......jesus this gets addictive

Any way one last photo of rear wheel arch

Now that's weathering.... looking incredible, this is going to be a seriously impressive outfit when it's done....

What sort of filler have you used.... I've got some fairly squidgy stuff in a tube which I reckon would do the trick.... what you reckon.... I can set about the TM to hide all the bits I ballsed up!

It's signal, green stuff but I am experimenting (err spelling) with diffrent makes at the min and how dry and wet they want to be, also UH paint reacts with some.

well im asking for an airbrush for christmas im going to have a try on my 818 because its broken anyway

[Fendthead]

Got to shed a bit earlier tonight, few pics of how its going. I decided to keep the UH rear linkage this time....But the next one isn't . all the wheels and main frame now done I will just do the tops of the mudgards etc once the cab is on. I have made it wet mud as I have a plan for a diorama with a slurry tanker or poss a spreader

[Fendthead]

one of the back

[ма��u$*2k9*kid]

love it mate

i sent you a pm about the weathering

[Deere-est]

Brilliant, looks every part as real as a real one looks. Very impressed with it.
