Title: Stalinetz tractor
Post by: Wesleybeks on March 14, 2015, 01:43:21 PM
Hello guys

I had this kit lying around and after gaining some real inspiration watching John Tolchers build of it, I jumped in and started it. Im quite happy with how its turned out so far. Im using it as a base to try different weathering techiniques.

Let me know what you think so far. Im open to all constructive criticism.

The rust and dirt on the tracks is especially effective.

Very satisfactory so far. Looks like you'll now turn your attention to the radiator, motor, and seat. -- Russ

Nice work Wes.  I too like those tracks; very realistic.

Thanks for the kind words gents.

Gordon its the 1/35 offering from Trumpeter. I added the after market engine from LZ models.

Russ those 3 items are on the list of things to do. Also thinking of adding a canopy of some sorts to try some more techniques out. Ill post more pics soon.
