Added some really nice Tamiya etched winch brake bands, picked up off some left over Dragon Wagon parts.
Here is what I was really shooting for based on the reference photos below:
(This tractor, trailer, bulldozer combo won “Best Armor” at the Louisville IPMS Regional. I kinda like winning Best Armor with Military, soft skinned, wheeled vehicles)
p.s. I could have gone for the armored dozer but all that armorplate just hides too much of all that very nice mechanical detail!
