Hey everyone! I grabbed myself an authentics 4450 and decided to do some customizing! Added a chrome stack of course, and then tried my hand at heavy weathering. I also added the grab rails at the front and rear of the hood. Let me know what you think!
This is my first attempt at weather so any tips or tricks would be awesome! I think I will hook this to one of the big side sling manure spreaders and weather that the same! |

What did you use for the stack?? It is just a chunk of aluminum tubing I picked up at the hardware store. I have a number of different sizes but 3/32" looked the most proportional to this tractor. |

Thanks Tony! I might have to get some supplies and give this a try! I would guess the pastels are more forgiving than paint, you can wipe it off and make changes until you are happy and then dullcoat it? |
