PDC Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I decided to make this old loadall look a bit used : Do you think I got a little bit carried away :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batcher Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Been in the lagoon has she? i like to see kit well used top marks or should that be spots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I started by buying scrap loadall's off ebay untill I could make up a good one : Then I thought i'd cut the door off and stick it back on in the open position,i then added 2 different mirrors and two different headlights and a beacon. Then I thought let's make it look weathered : well half a tube of filer and quite a bit of matt humbrol paint she ended up like this :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I like the grease and oil effect on the boom, looks good, reminds me of my ROS Lamborghini & Fiat that have mud splattered paint on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 that looks great paul, did the filler take to the body work ok then? would never have thought of that for mud effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I like it. Some of the mud is a bit shiney though it nearly looks like greasy mud on the hubs. Brush strokes are a little obvious in places but overall its a good effect and from further away in a scene I'm sure looks good. Anyone going to attempt a burnt out tractor?
