Nice work.

The truck looks great. Very good weathering and finish as well. There is an issue with the base though. The tire tracks are going in the opposite direction as the truck. Also, not all the wheels touch the ground, but are floating a bit. If the truck isn't attached, you could turn it around to match the tire track direction.

Good point HeavyArty, its good that the truck is not actually attached to the base. I will reverse it

I second HeavyArty: the truck is very convincing. Hussein, when you turn the truck you might add some pigments to base and wheels/lower frame to blend truck and base a bit more together. A figure would add too.
But again: the truck is a pearl!

Very nice. Like the weathering.

I had to 'torque' my chassis as it was a bit off.

Then when I added some AM tires/wheels and I had to sit a heavy weight on top and relaxed the chassis (frame) with a hair dryer repeatedly to get all tires to touch the surface.

Now if I can just finish it! Yours looks great Hussein!!

Very nice work especially the weathering on the tires. How do you guys get all four wheels to touch down? I had fits with a I.E.D gun truck, I ended up tossing the model for that and other quality issues with the model.

I corrected the truck placement
i reversed the truck position to adjust the track direction and i added sand putty to the base so that each wheel would touch the ground, it was better to modify the base height than to modify the wheels height
