Wow fantastic work on the snoopy artwork Joe! Definitely got good advice there. After seeing your numerous GunTruck builds, im almost inspired to try it out too.
Great job and good luck on MoM!

Thanks guys

, Danial the C-ration boxes are from Verlinden, and used thin black tape for the straps. You can find all sorts of C-ration and MRE'S boxes in 1/35th on ebay. I got mine at $4 bucks a sheet that came with a total of 12 boxes.

Nice work Joe! I wish you'd submitted your build feature though, then it would have been in the database and seen by more people! You could still do it too.

Excellent work, Joe!
I really love the subtle shading/weathering in the paint job, Bro, looks just "dirty enough", and definitely not overdone. . .Bravo Zulu!

Excellent scratch building skills, I did follow your link to the build and the engine is wonderful as is the armoured tray and everything else. A lot of hard work has gone into this Guntruck.
