Dung Lam Quoc shares a great vehicle with some great weathering. This one just came from a desert deployment:dusty, chipped and worked hard.



If you have comments or questions please post them here.

Thanks!

Saw the other thread finally. Very nicely done. I think the weathering on this one came out spectacular. Great job.

Hi Dung,

Very nice work on the truck. Looks excellent.

Not sure about the wheels though, are they meant to have a rim running around the centre of the tyre?

Very interesting looking build, thanks for sharing.

Is there a build log or thread of it being built? I'd love to see the part-by-part for this one. Especially the rear compartment.

Hey, that'd be great because talent and results like that are best passed on. I think you did a great job. Is there any scratchbuilding in that truck, or, is it box-stock?

Hi Cuhail! i did nothing, it's just out of box. The next M49A2C is in progress, i will take some photos with the paint in camo, not like this one.
