1:8 scale diecast MF Te20 farm tractor model

February 20, 2024 · in Automotive · · 18 · 162

My very first 1:8 scale dicast model. The details are beautiful and the weathering and painting were fun to do on such a big scale model like this farm tractor. The customer was satisfied with the results. I've added 'before' photos.

  1. What an amazing result, Charles @tiking
    Lots of details indeed and beautifully painted.
    I really like the way you added that metal inside the tire and the way the grille looks like.
    Well done on your first 1:8 kit

  2. Fantastic job, Charles! What a departure from the original!

    In my youth, I spent many hours on Ford 8N and 9N tractors and I can tell you that you have the "look" done perfectly! 👍 Very cool indeed, Charles!
