Another Fordson project in 1/16th scale

[fspg2]

Chuck,

I'm always speechless - but also very excited!

[Chuck Doan]

Only the far side and front left to do. I am still using the black and brown oil paint mixed with fine dirt for the oil/grease. I made cotter pins for the spring shackles by scraping some .015 brass wire half flat, annealing, and then bending around to make the pins.

[Chuck Doan]

This is how the other side looks.

Yeah, that new oily dirt should do pretty nicely. -- Russ

One can only say so many things about your work.

It is just so impressive with each step you do.

This oily dirt is so incredibly realistic!

Chuck, your photos look like shots for a service manual of an actual frame being worked on.

[Stuart]

Oily, grimy, greasy dirt never looked so good!

Ah For the smell of grudge - dirt - oil and grease - things just get better around here

I love the way you do the oily crud. It looks incredibly realistic.

[WP Rayner]

There's nothing I can add that hasn't already been said. Just love watching the progress.

[Chuck Doan]

Thanks!

Got some more filthing done on the front.

Looks pretty good so far. -- Russ
