Hey guys! You are more than welcome. Thanks for your likes too. Much appreciated.

My goodness, does it come with a Haynes Manual? 😉 Looks like a lots of challenges to overcome, but I'm sure the end results will be fantastic!

Simon Nagorsnik
Cool project!
Hope to see some good redults😉

The PE reel came out fantastic. I like the subject, looks like a fun build.

Have fun harvesting!

Michael Kohl
@Bruce: unfortunately it doesn't. There are some areas where location of parts is not clear. So, if you happen to have a Haynes Manual for this russian harvester, please let me know. 😉
5 June 2022, 16:35
Michael Kohl
@Ben M: I am happy with the reel too, so I thought I had a run and tried my soldering skills at the access ladder - and failed miserably. Everything that worked so smooth at the reel, would just not work at the ladder (for now 🙂).

Finn
Cool, looking forward
13 June 2022, 07:50
Alec K
Cool project, something different it sure is. Question: in pic 19, is that a magnetic base?
13 June 2022, 12:44
Spanjaard
really curious about this one.
13 June 2022, 12:56
Michael Kohl
Hi Finn, Alec and Spajaard, nice to have you around.
@Alec: it is not a magnetic base but a ceramic one. It is meant for soldering as it can take any kind of heat.
13 June 2022, 18:26
Michael Kohl
Thanks for your likes, folks. I am happily surprised about the attention this niche project receives. Stay tuned.
15 June 2022, 10:38
Robin (WhiteGlint)
As much as we love the "normal stuff", I think many people are excited to see something unusual off the trodden path.
Keep up the good work, Michael. 👍
Your PE handling is top, are you soldering the parts?
15 June 2022, 11:19
Jörg Schäfer
Hallo Michael.
Sehe das wie Robin, sehr schön mal was anderes zu sehen als immer nur Panzer und Flugzeuge.
Sehr akkurate Verarbeitung der Ätzteile.
Ich werde das hier weiter verfolgen.
18 June 2022, 14:24
Alex
Interesting kit. Will it tow a russian tank, by any chance? 😄
18 June 2022, 16:18
Michael Kohl
Thanx mates for your encouragement and welcome
@Robin: not least to further improve my skills, I wanted to solder particularly the bigger pieces. Soldered they are much more stable and can take some handling. But with some pieces I prefered super glue.
@Jörg: Danke dir, freut mich, wenn Du vorbeischaust
@Alex: the plan is to show it in its natural habitat - meaning harvesting, maybe together with a russian or czech truck. The original idea was to display it with a Cmelak and to build a second one (Cmelak) after I made my life miserable with the first one. But now I feel that the plane will take to much attention from the harvester.
18 June 2022, 17:42
Simon Nagorsnik
So much work to do, my respect for your progress mate 😁
Great job with the PE`s!
22 June 2022, 18:30
Bruce Huxtable
A proper engineering project for sure 👍 I'm impressed with your soldering skills, it's kinda like you have completed an apprenticeship!
22 June 2022, 19:14
Michael Kohl
@Bruce: Well actually I did - but that was 31 years ago. 😉 And it was only basic training in high temperature soldering with a flame. So for soldering brass I had to start from scratch. But with practice success is achieved more often. 🙂
28 June 2022, 20:03

Krass, der Michael pflanzt Weizen.
Immer wieder geil dir bei deinen Baufortschritten zu zu sehen.

Going well. Nice grain to be harvested
18 July 2022, 21:56
bughunter
Oh yes, looks nice! But it could also be hemp. 😉
19 July 2022, 05:41
Michael Kohl
Danke dir Jörg. Ein Kompliment das ich nur zurückgeben kann. 🙂

Thanx Spanjaard, nice to have you around.

Bughunter, you are absolutely right, as the "grain" I put on for layout purposes is hemp - plumpers hemp - indeed. 🙂 I experimented with it to do the grain, but the fibers are too uneven.
19 July 2022, 15:28
Mark Broughton
Great build, its very similar to the combine my Dad used in the 70's. My son is harvesting in Claas combine this year thats like a space ship in comparison.
20 July 2022, 08:38
Laliscale
Oh my god. In my childhood we played on this monster in a machine graveyard. It was not so safety from now but exciting... Michael this is a very cool kit i'll follow your project.
20 July 2022, 18:18
Bernhard Schrock
Sehr erfrischend etwas zu sehen, was total aus dem Rahmen fällt! 🙂 die Lötstellen sehen sehr sauber aus. Womit hast du gelötet?
20 July 2022, 19:31
Michael Kohl
Thanx Mark and Laliscale. Nice thought that this brings on some childhood memories. Concerning safety: when I watch the YouTube-Videos of this machine and look at all the moving parts of the various transmissions, I ask myself how many fingers have been sacrificed to the god of Niva.
30 July 2022, 18:24
Michael Kohl
Danke Bernd. Ich nehme nen einfachen Lötkolben, verzinne die Spitze und verzinne damit die zu lötenden Kanten nachdem ich diese mit feinem Schleifpapier und Alkohol gereinigt habe. Alles wird nur mit Handschuhen angefasst und ich nutze viel Flussmittel. An Lot nehme ich normales Elektrolot.

Lots of details. A very unusual subject.
15 November 2022, 04:11
Michael Kohl
Thanks mates for your motivating comments. Nice to see your interest in this niche build.
@Alex. The kit is a bit complex indeed. With that in mind one can only congratulate Snake Model for their very good engineering. Unfortunately instructions are not on the same level. So some experimenting, creativity and research on behalf of the modeller is needed.
15 November 2022, 09:32
miloss
Ohohooo, that´s FANTASTIC!!! Great, great, great! Where do you buy Snake model´s kit, please? They have so many so cool objects, in their offer!

Thanx mates for your interest. Miloss, I saw this kit in the newsfeed here on scalemates and was looking around. I found mine at panzerfux.de. They still offer a few kits, right now the Harvester for 72€ as a black friday offer.

I wanted to wait till the end, but I stopped by again to say your agricultural thingy is one of the best models in 1:72 I have seen here lately.
Will there be a diorama with it?

Oh man, The painting looks really fantastic and deserves respect for that👏
The whole weathering is just outsanding!

But haven't I seen a base somewhere😉

Oh mate, simply exquisite 😮 👍
Extremely hard to believe this is 1/72

28 December 2022, 06:18
Michael Kohl
Thank you guys for sneeking in and commenting so positively.
Bernhard, I am afraid that Lingen will not be the place to see it as I live in Nürnberg and Lingen is quite a ride from there. In former times - while still living further north - Lingen was compulsory of course. But - maybe I can motivate some other guys from around here...

Daniemalan, a field is in the making.

Thanks Frank (bughunter). Only a few square centimeters are to be done. Then all the spikes will have been planted. Quite a tedious job but I have not found another way then to put them individually one by one.
Thanks James and to all of you mates for your likes. I really hope to get it ready for the Model Show in Moson.

Hi Spanjaard. I have to admit that I am very pleased too how the wheat turned out. Only the harvested part of the field is not yet to my liking. But I got an idea... 🙂

This one looks so real if it weren't on a diorama base it would have totally fooled me. My honest truth. What a masterpiece. It is an early stage of the year but I have to admitt that this one has the potential to become the buld of the year for me on this plattform. Congrats to your skills. 👍 I bow before you! 🙂

Michael Kohl
Here are some pictures of the finished project. Started in May 2022 it took me less than a year to complete. Thus it qualifies as a speed build according to my standards. 😉
It was really moving to see the interest in this build, to read your comments and the likes after you visited. You made this a special experience. Thanks a ton for that.
To me this build was special for another reason too, as it is my first model which in the end really looks the way I envisioned it when I started.

A big Thanks to Snake Model too. This well done kit gave me a really good time.

Happy modelling to all of you mates out there.

Jaw-dropping result on this 1/72 project. 👀
All my respect for this workman skills. Hat's off.
21 April 2023, 05:41
Marius
As I said it before, this turned out to be one of the prettiest dioramas in 1:72 I have seen here lately.
And that is because of different reasons more or less subtle:
#1 Between tanks and jets there is suddenly an agricultural thingy, certainly an eye catcher
#2 The high level and sharpness of detail on the machine
#3 Spot on weathering with a very realistic look and just the right amount
#4 Very beautiful diorama in itself (the figure painting, the wheat, etc.)
#5 ....and the most important one surpassing the previous points is the genuine amtosphere. It feels like in the 70's in a sunny and very hot summer day in some Eastern steppe. Somehow time stands still in a different era, when the notion of tight schedules and constant rushing weren't an issue.
21 April 2023, 06:16

Da kann ich Marius nur zustimmen. Besser kann es nicht gesagt werden.

Thanks again Frank, Spanjaard, Kyle, Juergen, Marius, Neuling and Vincent for your flattering comments and to all of you guys who visited and left a like.

@Marius: points #2-4 were aspects that I strived to achieve. That you point them out particularly means a lot to me. That this machine evoked childhood memories and the atmosphere you mentioned is more than one cherry on the cake.

24 April 2023, 17:55
Michael Kohl
Yes Frank. Thanks for your interest. 🙂 One was a special recognition as Excellent Model 2023 by Civilian Scale Model Building and in the official category "Master-Class: Diorama civilian vehicles" it received a third place. But maybe even more rewarding than the official awards were a few positive personal comments and seeing it being photographed by other modellers. And - last but not least - it came back into my cabinet without damage. 🙂
