Suggestions for improvement ?

Not a 'problem'.. straight forward opinions required !

Pictured here are two re-painted and weathered Roco M923 trucks, one in an attempt at the MERDC camouflage scheme and one in three tone NATO camouflage.

MERDC version


NATO version


I like both models as they are now, but since I am biased, I'd like to hear from you... is there something (except for the antennae on the first and the misaligned front wheel on both models) that could/should/must be altered/improved ?

Eric, There are some very nice photo etched accessory packs made for these trucks which include mirrors (the Roco ones are kind of klunky), windshield inserts and even interior stuff like dashboards and door panels. Check out the Hauler site. I also think a dark panel wash would bring out some more detail in the castings, especially the wheels (after you've fit the tires!)
