Hello !
Nice new started model.
I do not have any Rye Field Models kits.
But the last announcement for a M-ATV with Qinetiq RPG nets is a good reason to purchase a first kit of this brand.

Thanks !
So far no problems, no issues.
Everything goes where it’s supposed to go, easily, instructions are easy to follow, simple,clear. ( Dragon should take a look how it’s done…)
I have a question about the color on the engine is that the color that it calls for. The reason I am asking is I thought that they were CAT yellow. I have this kit in my cue and just want to clarify so I paint it right when I do it.

From my walkaround that I distributed Tuesday evening:
I have found Floquil’s UP Armor Yellow to be a very good match. I’m not sure if it’s srill available but other makers should offer it, UP being a somewhat wellknown railroad.

They don’t have a color scheme for the engine.
But thanks to this photo by 18bravo… I will repaint it.
No color schematics so far ( I’m at step 7 ).
But the kit is great, instructions, plastic, details.
The only issue is that being a “Full Interior” kit, it should have been more accurate with the colors. It just have a generic color layout of the finished model
Thanks for the photo, it will be really helpful .
I’ll have to check that walkaround !
The walkaround has all of the interior details you need as well. I may send nother batch at the end of next week if interest is high enough.
I think on the couple of Cat powered trucks I’ve built I picked up the sunflower yellow or something similar to that name from Tamiya and it worked out pretty well.
Nice start! I have this one in the stash waiting for its turn

It’s really one of my favorite kits; great fit and detail, the plastic is nice, the PE stretches my skills without breaking them and the machine itself is darned nice to look at. And 18Bravo’s walkaround gets all the wee details for those who need to wire up their scratch built framistat gaskets.
