This is WAY nice.
An unusual subject beautifully done. 
Great job so far.

Getting close to paint.....maybe..
Too many rivets and those damn levers!
I am not crazy about the levers but nothing better I can do in this scale...

Hi Marty --

That's looking DAMN good!  Admire your patience working with all those fiddly bits ... or maybe I'm just glad not to be there while the obscenities are flying. 

Levers look fine to me ... for future projects, you might want to pick up a pack or two of these:

6 nice little white metal levers for $4.50 ... not a bad deal ... haven't actually used them yet, but have a set or two stashed for one of those occasions.

Cheers,
Dallas

I love it, Marty. Eveything is perfectly neat.
One of the best hints a model is excellent is when it can be displayed this way, with no paint, and look so good.

Between you and Gordon, a lot of dirt is going to be moved.
Great job so far, Marty. 
Looking forward to seeing this in paint.

Thanks guys!
Dallas hat would have been good info about two weeks ago,,,,,,,........

Dont think mine will move much dirt! a shotglass full would take several shovels full......that gives me an idea~

Some slow progress....
Weather has been too nice to be inside around here!
Base colors are down and the tractor has received it's paint job.
A few more details to add then I hope to do the paint job on the Fundom part.
Nothing is assembled here just placed, I plan on doing the paint job before final assembly......

Here are the beginnings of color (zinc chromite yellow) figured that was an appropriate color yellow.
I couldn't find any Mary Kay Pink in acrylic.
No weather has been started yet and only the start to the other colors.
Been studying treads too...........
