I have been working, on and off on this build for a few weeks.

Some of you may remember the tractor I did a couple of years ago-' MOUSES NEW HOME' (see picture)

Well, I got hold of another tractor as I really enjoyed doing the first one.

They are the tractor from Shaun the Sheep by Airfix and although discontinued they can be got at a reasonable price, paid £25 for mine.

So, this is where I have got to at the moment, there are the side panels and roof to add and then some more weathering. I have added mats and decals to the engine bay, scuffed the tyres.

Hope you like.

I found a small tube from one of those kits you get with glue and paints HURRAY!

So, have done a bit more an added some decals, will get some pics up soon.

I know you fudged this and showed us a real tractor in the first two pictures, but you're doing a great job of copying that sort of semi-abandoned look!

Maybe so, but you do it exceedingly well!

Thanks Dave, appreciate that.

The finished article is now in a thread in the complete section if you want to see the full worn out version :D
