Oh no! I almost believe that the right-front wheel fender got its "holes" not because of paint, but by the crazy rust! Very real and brilliant for a single show, also love the scattered dried leaves at the groundwork, congratulations!

Nice work! The fern leaves perhaps are from this PE set?

The deflated tire is tremendous idea! And very realistic workmanship!

I can only agree with the others: tremendous piece and an inspirational build. I would love to get some details on the techniques you applied. One or the other I can guess but others less. Particularly the seats. Let us have a sneek into your box of methods.

Jaw dropping outstanding work Guy!!!
The only thing missing is a fox's den underneath. Just brilliant.
I too would appreciate an explanation for each step in the process.

Hi Guy, that's not bad
LOL, no, it's really good. Glad you are still around.
Give us some insights about your rust method please. You are probably on the Benelux forum but flemish is not our strongest language

Very nice, I would also like to see how you thinned and "rusted" the body on this. Your build is sort of along the lines of what I want to do with my Chevrolet gun tractor, and I think you just convinced me to dig it out again and start modding it
