finally done - The M1075

[tiking]

This is my version of the M1075. I decide to do the M1075 version and later do the M1074 variant. The only big difference is that the M1074 has a mid-ship mounted handling crane between the hydralic hooklift system and the tractor itself. The crane will be made to just sit comfortable without any modification to the finished M1075 model.

Here's an example of one without the flatbed and crane, called the M1074 because of the addition of the crane:

Nice job. ;)
The only thing that I would comment on is the tires. The dirt or sand that is on them seems to be not applied in a way that looks natural on something that would rotate at speed. The actual modleling and paint is quite well done. It's the general weathing/aging that perhaps needs some work.. or not maybe you like it like this... just my view. You seem to push the envelope with these modern pieces of yours. Have you much real life experience with these vehicles/subjects that you build?

Thanks for your comments. No, I don't have any real life with any military equipment. I just try and duplicate what I see. About the weathering, well I can't please everyone but I'm still learning.

When you said that I try to push the limit... what do you mean exactly??

I never seem to know what you mean by your comments. Like my link you posted. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

There was a comment you made in that post: "While maybe the modelling is not at the level of some..."

What do you mean?
