Little grey? Fergie - did I go too far?

I had a first go at weathering the Ferguson tractor. I don't really have much experience with weathering vehicles and even less experience with Vallejo acrylics. I think I'm fairly happy with the outcome but would welcome your opinions. I do note looking a the prices of tractors on Ebay that I have added a couple of thousand to the price by weathering it as it would appear that you pay less for a 'restored' tractor than you do for a 'barn find' by about £2000.

That's beautiful work; I especially like the gouged tyres. My French friends have one that serves as a reserve to a 1964 Fordson;. The French ones were built under licence by Hotchkiss, who also built Jeeps (and machine-guns}

Brings back memories of the one I sold about a year ago. She was a '56 gold edition. Badly repainted to red at somepoint, but ran well. I did have a hankering to restore her to original but too many other projects and a need for a tractor with a front loader meant she had to go.
