Thanks guys, and they are covered in a lot more dust than most people like, but the truck is part of a convoy that has been driving through the desert, the tank has been fighting in the desert for a couple of days, and the wreck has been abandoned, also in the desert . So I dont think these vehicles would have been cleaned a lot…

Next vehicle for this diorama is another Dodge 4x4, basicly the same kit as I used in Christmas holiday build, this time Italeri instead of Bilek, but it is exactly the same kit. And this time with a Legend set that will add some interest to it:
After doing that Maultier I notice the big difference in detailing between that kit and this one, so I added something that must resemble hinges on the tailgate.
Glued it on with styrene dissolved in Tamiya Extra Thin, read about that somewhere so decided to give it a try. Looks horrible now, but once painted I am sure it will be different.
The truck is nearly done:
So it is time to try the Legend extra’s, see how they fit, how it looks, which parts to use and which not:
And I will have to look for a driver, the original driver doesn’t fit into its intended place, so he was banned to the rear compartment, he will be the passenger/gunner.
to be continued…

Thanks guys, this kit is quite small, goes together very fast. And indeed is this a very nice Legend set!
I have to agree, those are some great looking vehicles, and nice weathering!
