2023 builds finished (some started earlier)
What's the story on the tractor? Kit or modified diecast? Also dig the Hitachi roller and A highboy roadster! *NM*
Marty, the tractor & roller are 1/35th Hasagewa kits--200+ parts. The tooling & fit are the best I've worked with, above Nunu, Ebbro, Tamiya--had to be to get it to go together--so intricate, so delicate. God Bless Tamiya thin cement! *NM*
These PIX give an idea of how small these build are.
Dang, that roller is smaller than I remember! *NM*
Diggin those! *NM*
Much appreciated, Frank. *NM*
I REALY like the yellow '40! *NM*
Thanks, David. FWIW, the yellow is real John Deere Yellow Enamel--thick, goopy, took forever to cure, hard as a rock, not rubbed out (wouldn't live long enough to do that anyway). Warbird chrome strip decals--easier than BMF!! *NM*
Nice stuff. What’s the details on the gulllwing? *NM*
Thanks, Lenny. Tamiya kit, Tamiya yellow & red sprays, "Blue Stuff" decals/resin detail kit (European w/cartograf decals), Doc O'Brien weathering powders from Micro Mark *NM*

No, they're not. They're part of the detail kit from Blue Stuff. *NM*
Good stuff - the wheels - tires combo on the hot rod is perfect for that car! *NM*
Thanks, Bruce. RMCoM wheels & tires, Parts by Parks hub caps (they fit real well on RMCoM steelies). *NM*
Nice builds but love that tractor detailing. *NM*
Thanks Gabe. Weathering those really small parts was real tricky--bend & break easily (which I found out). *NM*
Those Hasegawa construction and tractor kits are super cool. I've had a few of those construction kits but I sold them because they were too small to go with the rest of my stuff. It would awesome if they'd do them in 1/24th scale. Beautiful work though! *NM*
Thanks, Bob. I'd have all of them if they were in 1/24th or 1/25th. These 2 were awful hard on shaky hands and old eyes. *NM*
Masterful job of dust/dirt film on the tractors and Mercedes rally. Very realistic. Congrats! *NM*
Thanks, Bill. *NM*
