The Zetor 25 tractor model is finished. The model is built from the box, the only additional accessories were thin wires used for steering rods and engine wiring.

Robert and Alec thank you for the compliments. I appreciate it very much.

I am now selecting the next model to start building. One candidate is the Mig-15 (so I have something to mount on the Zetor's towing gear), but it may be overtaken by the JAS-39 in a special paint job for the centenary of the Czechoslovak Air Force.

Very nice work, Ludvíku! I really like this little thing 👍
May be, it seems to me, that the dirt on tyres is a bit too much yellow? I dont know...

Thank you, Jakub! 🙂

The mud on the tires is actually more brown. The slight color distortion in the photos is due to the harsh light of the LED lamp and the blue mat the model is photographed on.

Thank you, Jakub! 🙂

The mud on the tyres is actually more brown. The slight color distortion in the photos is due to the harsh light of the LED lamp and the blue mat on which the model is photographed.

But I'm going to tone down the mud marks anyway. On a military airfield with a concrete runway, there weren't as many opportunities to get mud on the tires. But ... it's possible that it was just after the rain and the tractor driver took the shortest route to the plane over the unpaved part of the airfield 😉.

Maybe, he just wanted to enjoy a ride. More mud= more fun 😄

This is also possible, young men wanted to have fun during their military service. Especially when the opportunity arose.

Well done - will look nice with a plane on the two bar. Nice color contrast: green Zetor - red bar - alu plane 😉

Thanks bughunter!

I'm thinking the same thing. I still have to build a MiG-15. I have the kit, now I'm looking for a color scheme of the machine with some interesting coloring. I also want to add some figures, a tractor driver and possibly some technicians.
