I'm going to build this model but I'm not sure about the load. Honestly I'd like to put something with a pixel camo on it but I didin't found any photos of this kind of "configuration". I'm not sure if it would be possible today to see this stuff (tractor is quite old) with a modern looking tank with pixel camo. Can anyone help me? Anye ideas or photos?

I'm building the Trumpeter Chinese multiple launch rocket system to put on mine. I picked that because its a vehicle that you don't see too often.

I just want to know it it would be possible to see this truck (nowadays) carrying a ZTZ type of chinese tank with a pixel camo for a parade.

ZTZ-99 is too heavy by 4 tons. You might get away with the ZTZ-96 which is supposed to be 41.5 tons but the G model (first seen in 2006) has several new additions including ERA plates and might be too heavy.
Here's a decent picture of the digital camo scheme on the 96 at the 2009 60th Anniversary Parade in Beijing:
I'm not too sure if the transporter itself would be painted in the digital scheme though.
Hope this helps.

It can easily take a ZTZ-99, I have photos to corroborate this. You should remember that the trailer is RATED at 50 tons, but it can take more... I wouldn't be surprised if it can handle 60.
I waited 7 years for a decent -99 kit to come out so that I could start my transporter as well.

I'd like to have the tractor in green, Digital truck? That's suicide If the tanks are to heavy why not to put on the trailor this guy:
from Hobby Boss (but there is no digital camo scheme in the box).

Robert, one of your fellow Poles,Stroju, posted a great thread on a digital scheme he did for a ZBD-04 back in April. It was the green one but it might give you an idea of how to plan for it.

You should do a Build Log for this project, I for one would be interested to see it.

I know Stroju and his model But this veihicle looks for me to complicated - I'm searching for something more easier and simpler do build (complexity of the transporter itself is enough ) . ZLC 2000 is quite small... But ther's no digital camo scheme in the box.
If anyone is interested in building the transporter - I'll start in in january.
