Found yesterday resin update from Black Dog to Steyr 1500, after little modification of back seat big cargo was mounted on vehicle. Wheels from ICM are poor, must used a lot of putty, but rest is nice. So soon paint job ;D

 

[spud]

Very nice

thanks for lookin' just done winter radiator cover, used green stuff. It is my second sculpt in my life, so I'm very happy about that and final effect ;D

 

[spud]

that looks pretty dam good

 

[Przemo1CK]

Thanks

I've done some modification of spring suspension, will be put on rocky terrain, when I prepare base. Have some idea for that one. Also I will use Steyr 1500 wheels with chains from Black Dog set, because I found some reference photo of Mercedes with those wheels.
