amv Posted May 26, 2020 (edited) Greetings, friends! :) The little tracked "workaholic" of the American company Cleveland Tractors hails from the 1930s. The model has 114 parts, 40 of which are links of caterpillars (20 each). Description of the assembly scheme can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPAlMnIZcso Best regards, AMV Edited May 27, 2020 by amv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RyszardBosiak Posted May 28, 2020 Awesome! It is not easy to create something small with lots of details, but here is everything is on the right place. Great work :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great work :) Many thanks! The tractor itself also helped - its proportions are in good agreement with the proportions of the lego parts :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteamSewnEmpire Posted May 29, 2020 I like it. Not so wild about the A) unusable seat, and B) color scheme, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could use piece #4032, if you wanted. That's a really cool build, though! The small builds take the most work. Keep it up, I can't wait to see more!

SteamSewnEmpire Posted May 29, 2020 I wonder if there's a way to accomplish the more contoured features found later models in this line at this scale? Like the Cletrac HG-42 Crawler? Not sure how you'd get that rounded front in 2 wide, but it would look cool as hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg3 Posted May 29, 2020 I love little builds like this and this one's really nice... I like the splashes of colour and the amount of detail you've squeezed in. Good job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, yellow or orange is beautiful! :) On 5/29/2020 at 1:06 PM, SteamSewnEmpire said: I like it. Not so wild about the A) unusable seat, and B) color scheme, though. Thanks for the answer! :) The model is focused on dioramas, for the game of course you can change the seat. The necessary details of a different color (for example, yellow) were not enough for me :) On 5/30/2020 at 2:22 AM, MrSean7310 said: I too like usable seats. You could use piece #4032, if you wanted.

Thank you for your feedback! :) Indeed, small models sometimes make you think a lot about the design :) Although large ones too :)) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice tractor :) You can try to make a round hood with a pair of such parts: Or half of this part: Cutting the part with a saw, I got a mudguard for the Kamaz 65117 model. I do not really like to cut parts, but sometimes I feel like it! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
