quite pleased with how this has come out. These Miniart tractor kits are excellent quality. So far they have made 3 of them, hopefully more to follow. I'm actually starting on the next one later today! At Christopher M's suggestion did my best not to rush it. Dried mud is a bit hit and miss, looks good on the tyres but a problem I found is its hard to get to some spots with a sponge after just brushing it on. It also dries quickly. I do reckon the rust effect has come up really well though. Any feedback, positive and negative appreciated.

thank you John. Thinking I'll need to build a shed for them after a hard day in the fields!

Looks great Geoff, one comment: the fringes of the left headlight lens should be vertical.

thanks Mike and Chris. Appreciate you pointing that out Chav. The lenses were exact fit no glue types, once in, never out again and I misaligned them at first go. Think I got a bit too focused on my first time usage of mud and rust!
