This has been gathering dust, litteraly, for a few weeks whilst I was busy with my Pzr IV. But as I hit a bit of a wall with my weathering of that one, and I don't want to overdo it, I've put it aside for a few days and pick this up again. It's Italieries Mercedes L 3000, as a maintanance/supply truck. It's all more or less finished, there is one more mechanic figure (not in the pic) and a few loose ends to tie up. The idea is that the truck will be permanent, as will the mechanics, but I'll use the roadway and road edge (behind it) as a pose for finished German armor, to add some interest in the back ground.
Enjoy, and yes, I know the dust is not to scale





Cheers

Looks very interesting, and nicely detailed.
The base looks nice and clean, drawing attention to the model itself.

Looking at the truck's windows, the driver can be glad he didn't come to a halt halfway the field. I think there's a little to much dirt in the front window

In my opinion the fence could use an extra wire, closer to the ground, or maybe all wires a little closer to eachother.

Maybe you could add a few soldiers walking by havig a laugh at their comrades? that would give the title a little extra punch?
