Nice paint work

Actually, I'm not happy with the paint and will be starting over.  I should have hit all the pieces with a primer to even the tones.  Between the molded parts, PE, 3D print and resin parts, I have too many shades of yellow going on.

[Warren D]

Got the paint sorted out and did some more PE work on the dash area.  Also got the lower units on, tracks are next.

 

[Mopar - D]

Warren I’m glad to see you back working on the dozer again. Your paint looks great and your PE parts really makes a difference. Looking forward to seeing you finish this one. 

[Warren D]

Tracks are on, upper engine parts, hood and ROPS are next.

 

[Mopar - D]

Your tracks look awesome Warren. Have you ordered your detachable lowboy for it yet?

[Mike C.]

Warren both of my detachable lowboy’s are from Stace he’s Wabatuckeun1 on this site and can be emailed at   wabatuckeun@gmail.com. He’s a great guy to work with.

Wow! Love the detailed ROPS and the headlights, neat work too. That winch must weigh a ton or two by itself, a nice addition

If I recall, the PE set had instructions included (or maybe it was download from the CTM site)

[Gary Chastain]

Great progress, like the detail.

This was nice loved all those PE detail sets you used. I need to grab similar items. Looks awesome.
