BK741 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Done some slight modifications to my Britains IH 956Xl fitted beacon, aerial and made it look like it has done a hard days work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAF Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I like it. Not gone overboard - good job couple of tips though - most of your dirt appears to be on the rubebr tread bits, instead of inbetween where its more likely to be becasue it would stick there, a bit like this (even though its a bit extreme) http://stockpodium.assetsdelivery.com/thumbnails/sima/sima0806/sima080600045.jpg also i wouldn't bother putting muck on the exhaust because on the real thing (if it is above the bonnet like this one) it is rare that dirt will be flying up that height especially so far forward but theyre just little pointers, as i say i still think its a very good job you've done there - keep it up!

Jdeere6910 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Looks great, more realistic I think as you hardly ever see a truly spotless tractor of that age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the pointers. I try ed to put the 'dirt' in between the rubber tread but as it dried it seamed to rum off. I will try a thicker mixture next time. I try ed to weather the exhaust as it wouldn't be white if the tractor is a few years old. I have found some pictures of IH956's some have black enamel exhaust which have dulled due to the heat of the engine and others seam to have badly rusted exhaust which would be right?
