Hehe, the massive Faun. I got the kit on the first day it came out here. It's great, but overwhelmingly large. I haven't had the time to tackle it yet. It's a great kit, straight OOB, no need for extra details, and it comes with a great sheet of photo-etch.
If you want something different, check out the August issue of AFV Modeller. They have some very nice pics of a built up one, but in an all white UN scheme.

I forgot earlier. Check out this link:
http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/models/vehicles/tr00203const.htm

It has a couple of sections of the buildup of various subassemblies in the kit, some links to resources, and a review. Pay attention as there is a mistake with the kit instructions pertaining to the mounting of one of the drive axles on the tractor.
