Fenside MF Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Combine looks allright but it should be much better with your additions,what trailers will you be running with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshParkinson Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Since the tank extension doesn't open on that combine have you thought about putting it on the headland with the fendt just arrived, with the combine driver out in the field checking the moisture before they make a start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdeere6910 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Nice addition Paul, will you be putting cropmech decals on her as well? It will look even better then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 If you want to change your 580 to a 550 you'll have to shorten it. Lexion 550 (walker) is 1064cm and Lexion 580 (hybrid) is 1025cm. Makes 1,2cm in 1/32 scale. Width is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 next tractor for my dios,i have allready sung this models praise,in whats your latest purchase topic,im going to convert it to a tm125,as i drove one for a contractor in okehampton,not alot of work to do to it either,as the tm i drove was the early grey chassis type,ive just got to change the mirrors mounting position,remove the mudguard mounted numberplate as mine was mounted on the cab,and pdc is getting me the tm 125 decals,this will be towing a green marston silage trailer,drawing away from a claas jag 880,just as i used to,will also get mandy to make me the number plate decal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 how about making some open grain tank doors to plonk on top of the Lexion to make it appear as its working? I did that with my CX820 convo, and then just used the lid off the cannibalised CR980. Then when she's in the barn you can just take it off and put somewhere safe til the next field. Mind you, all that said, I saw a Lexion 450 working once, with the tank lids closed, so anythings possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johny mf Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Looks verry good this scene! Have litle tip for you for making the gras on the land that is ready for pick up by the harvester! In model shops you can buy loose longer gras that are in bags and when you spray glue on the gras you can make the grasdune´s if you spray the glue in line´s that you want. Then you make the dune a litle bit higher and sprayglue again on it! But then you cant take it of any more and i don´t know if you want that you can also do it whitout the glue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 heres the combine with the cropmech, decals added,and modified the unloading auger so that it fully opens out,still bits to do,number plate and warning decals to fit on the combine and add a driver in the cab,the cropmech decals were made by mandy,HLT,they are superb,look the buisness and easy to apply,IF THAT SOUNDS LIKE AN ADVERT FOR MANDY THEN GOOD,PRAISE WHERE PRAISE IS DUE,would also like to say that mandy puts in double what you ordered in case i suppose you mess up putting the decals on,but they are really easy to apply,i might even try to have opening grain tank lids on the combine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
