Well I should have left well enough alone!!! Lesson learned!!! Finished this with a layer of oil pastels after wiping clean the area of the tractor.  Recently  learned from a tutorial about common mistakes students make.  Don't get emotionally attached... not every piece is a masterpiece... learn to MOVE ON!!!!

. Should have fixed it with oils to keep the strokes fresh!!
