Good evening. Mac Distribution 1/72 Mercedes LG 3000 with Preiser figures on this small vignette placed in Africa. It's painted with Vallejo acrylics and oils. Valejjo pigments and Mig washes were used too.
I hope you enjoy and feel free to comment, Cheers

Hi Neil
Thanks for your reply.
There are some issues that need to be noted. (From what I found in my kit) The chassis is a little distorted. This one is important and needs to be corrected because it will influence the final look of the model. Luckily it's a pretty simple piece that can be easily made from styrene strips. For some pieces you need to study photos and decide how to place them because the instructions are kinda vague and there are no visual sign on the model. Overall it a good and fast kit to make. I had some bad pieces in other kits from Mac distribution but after contacting them through email, they did send me new ones for free and for that I give them praise .
Happy building.

Nice looking Mercedes truck Alex. There's been some really nice and unusual subjects on the braille scale site lately and yours looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
