I like the juxtaposition of the deeply weathered launcher against the near pristine weapon it carries. There is a lot to be said for "tarping your load" - a trucker term.

However, it does look great and I can't wait to see your next project.

An all-round excellent model. Great build, paint job and weathering .... nice clean images as well. Exactly the kinda models I like, regardless of the subject. Easy to see why the judges picked this one.
Love the contrast between the different weathering levels and the various units ... rocket - pristine, truck - camo and medium weathering, trailer - no camo and heavier weathering. Top notch.
