IAINH1973 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 This is the first time I have had a go at a Siku John Deere. I was surprised how much better it looks when you put JD yellow on the wheels. Still to finish the cab interior .

IAINH1973 Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 HI I used Halfords white plastic primer spray as a base coat. I had a JD yellow spray can but I ended up air brushing it on as it came out far too fast and thick from the can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
