You have copied the wrong URL between the IMG tags. When you want a picture to appear in the forum you rightclick on the image and you choose properties. then in the new window that pops up you select the URL that stands in the middle of it. Be sure that you scroll from left top to right under so you copy the whole URL this URL you paste between the IMG tags and voila ... pictures
I know absolutely jack of modern vehicles so I can`t say anything usefull about it but I hope I helped you out with the pics

LOL - I just fixed my post the same time as Faust linked the pics - too funny
I think the truck looks good... did you have to mask to get the camo pattern? I really like the look - good job so far.

Vince - cool stuff! Now you've got me wanting to build a heavy tractor.
I was working on the M51 Dump Truck (naturally a gun truck conversion), but, I might put that on the back-burner.
Were you going to model a semi-trailer to pull behind this tractor, or are you going to leave it stand-alone?

Looking good Vince. The only thing that I see is the right stearing wheel seems to be outside the fender well. I don't know much about this truck so I may be wrong about it. Other wise it looks like it will be another great scratch build. My hats off to you.

Glad everyone likes it, to answer some questions, The camo was freehanded with a airbrush. Gunny, I'm looking at some drawings for a trailer for the truck now. Animal, thanks for pointing the right front wheel out, I think the cab was sitting crooked since it isn't glued in place till I get done with the interior. BTW Gunny or anyone if you want to try to build one like this let e now,I h ave tons of info
