Though the Aztek Gold T880 looks way too short imho. Well in Michigan they run short tractors on gravel trains to be able to run the longest trailer setup possible to get more axles on the ground. So with the gravel train I'm currently building I'm going to be able to pull a 28 foot lead trailer with a 25 foot pup. The trains wieght is around 164,000 lbs gross.

It started as a 4 axle tractor. That's a lot of frame lol. But yes it'll go well with the trailer you're building. Funny isn't it?.......how 1/100 scale diamond plate actually is what works for 1/50? lol

But I wish I could find some that was closer to the texture of the sword 379 fenders.

Nice work on the trench shields and stone boxes. It is a great way to complete any sewer diorama. Hope your customer puts them to work.

I normally don't paint anything for people I leave that up to the person I'm building for. I'll have him send some pics of the dozer all painted up and I'll post them up here.
