Hmm, at that size it'd work nicely in a 15mm fantasy army too - Dwarven steam-wagons!

Wonderful as usual, Tobi. Do you do commission work?

It is more 25-28mm scale than 15mm, but could work as well... if you don't mind the rivets ;) The kit is available here: http://www.tobsen77.de (http://www.tobsen77.de)
Paintjob is by Jonas Frickmann (http://therandomencounter.blogspot.com/).

Just a thought, Tobi, but it would be cool to see some armed cars for it, too.

Yeah, thought about that too... some armored cars or flat cars for big guns.... hmmm  ;)

An armoured car would be great, though I was planning to find some large experimental raygun of some sort for it to pull... I think this tractor is powerful enough to pull both a cannon and a wagon with some troops.

Lots of possibilities here, who doesn't need a tractor?

I just have this picture in mind... about 4-8 different coloured tractors on a victorian-steam-racing-dragster-boardgame  lol

Tobi, I'm getting fed up with saying this, but you've made yet another great model!

It's perfect to tow a GW Ork cannon-thingy I'm using as an experimental VSF super-gun. It's just the right size and design  :D

Your racing idea is a very good one and would be a fun convention game.

It's definitely something to save up for!

The car is great, the wheels are not.  If this is supposed to be a steam tractor you really need some era-typical wheels.

Seconded. Some spoked wheels would be great - and an optional turret?  :)

Thanks... the barrels are seperate tubes, the sponsons are on the hull. I'll post an image of the unpainted kit tonight. Tobi

P.S. the wheels can be used in two ways, just turn them arround ;)
