nyguy Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Revell Porsche Junior 108 tractor with scratchbilt manure spreader. The "contents" in the spreader are pencil shavings sprayed with earth tones. 3
espo Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Great looking model and diorama. Having lived in areas where there is still active farming going on, there is nothing like a dry windy day when a farmer is cleaning out the barn.
stavanzer Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Buddy of my Dad's was a New Holland sales rep. When asked if he stood behind his products, his response was: "Everything but the Manure Spreader" P.S. It was an Amish Farmer who asked the Question. And, yes, he did buy the spreader. 1

Or fertilizing the field right next door to your house. That is a beautiful piece of work on the spreader and the whole diorama. Very believable weathering and "cargo".
Mike C. Posted March 20, 2023 Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Growing up next door to a farm, I'm familiar with that smell. ? Edited March 20, 2023 by Mike C.
Mike C Posted March 28, 2023 Posted March 28, 2023 That's a great build. I built one of those tractors, but no diorama of farm equipment.
stitchdup Posted March 28, 2023 Posted March 28, 2023 Ah the smell of spring, much as the smell aint great, its always a sign that summer is on the way. Great job on the dio
Modelbuilder Mark Posted March 29, 2023 Posted March 29, 2023 nice rendition. Having pulled one of those a time or two in highschool, it always was a bummer when the slinging got out of hand and came forward.
Dragline Posted April 4, 2023 Posted April 4, 2023 It is almost if you drove by you could smell the "Dairy Air". Well done.
charlie8575 Posted April 19, 2023 Posted April 19, 2023 Very realistic. Creative way to recreate...stuff. Yeah, we'll go with stuff. Charlie Larkin
