Damn son! You're base work is ALWAYS brilliant! No exception here!!! Will you doing the mustache man, too?

 

[Dark Kyp]

Really impressive!

One thing to change to be perfect (I think ;D): There are no wheels marks on the floor, so it looks like the truck has been droped on it.

 

[JohnSimmons]

Your too kind Nick, and yeah my grampa is ready to go lol. DK Cheers man, I'm not putting any tire marks on though mate because the idea was that its a hard standing road hence all the dust on the vehicle, also in the ref pic (all though hard to see I admit) there's no track marks.

 

[Dark Kyp]

ok, thanks for the explaination
