Jordan_coe2012 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I found this in one of my boxes sorting out so i thought i would make it do some work. Looked far too new. Although its not really a conversion as all I have done is weather it. I have also made a little board (stolen idea from paulali:) ) to use for pics as I have no layout at the minute. So here she is britains ford 6600!! And also a couple with my Fraser trailer as thought they fit quite well together!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mb86 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Nicely done Jordan. There aren't many real ones around without a bit of rust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 what are you using on the tyres Jordan for the muddy effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_coe2012 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 I use humbrol weathering powder and water but I use an old ice cream tub that I must have put a pot and a half in and mix it with water, then depending how big the tractor/trailer else has to take the wheels off and run it through it like its gone through a puddle. I find this the most natural look on the outside of the tyre rather than using a brush. Once it's in there I can leave it to dry then just add water again the next time!

Jordan_coe2012 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Also thanks for the comments lads!! Here this is my tub it's half dry from earlier!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_coe2012 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Looks good with the trailer on it, looks like you've been sugerbeet or muck carting That's just given me an idea mark could make my board into a muck pile and like you say use my Fraser for a tipping scene!
