Best 60 Tractor & Logging Arch Build - HO

Hello everyone, here is my first post. I'm working on a small HO logging diorama and the Best 60 Tractor and Logging Arch with be part of the cast. Thought I would share some build images as I work on these. Loving these kits.

Here are the parts after a black primer and dark rust base color over the primer.

Base Color 2

And here are some parts after paint and chipping.

  • Terrific work Steve! The cable on the winch spindle looks great. Look forward to more progress as it comes, well done.
  • Wow! I like the color and the weathering is GREAT! Just enough to show a well used machine.
  • Thanks for the roadmap, Tom. There’s one of these in my future.
  • Steve great build. Colouring is perfect.
  • Really looks good, Steve. The paint and chipping effects really are outstanding. Looking forward to the completed build.
  • Thanks everyone. Hopefully can do some more this weekend and will try and post better pictures.
  • So well done Steve. You're on the right track !!!
  • Looking Great...what color yellow did you use?
  • Looking great Steve, the wear and chipping effects are so well done.
    This is going to be a great version of this kit.
  • Thanks Karl, absolutely love your work. @MuddyCreekRR the yellow paint is Tamiya but I mixed up the color to be close to Mission Models MMP-041 Hiway/Heavy Equipment Yellow.

    Thank you.
    I like the specificity of where you chipped and weathered, you obviously put thought into it and it shows in the overall effect and resulting realism.
