I am not the gambling type but I would bet on that being a real photograph of a real tractor, the muck on the wheels is a good indicator as are the shadows from the glorious sunshine that we are not having here in the NE.

Thunder and lightning, very very frightning - here  :smiley-laughing:

I'd have to say it looks so real it's a model.

Exactly! anyone could do that in 1/16, smallest he does is 1/48, ruddy amateurs  ::)

If I made that in 1/16 I'd make it fully working too and I mean on red diesel. Does this one work?

Despite the large scale the modeller's attention to detail
model is impressive. I noted that the original tractor
was from Danbury Mint, Is that the company that sells
cheesy figurines of Princess Di, Elvis plaques, and
other kitsch junk you see in the tv magazines ?
