THere is a small story behind this Truck. My father has been a truck driver since i have been alive. His first truck was a Mack. His first over the road truck,Which was Nick named "Blue Mule" was From a Company called Werner(no..not wiener lol) Which was damn near Ultramarine blue. The 3 Orks are Myself (driver) Middle brother (gunner) and youngest brother (grot). His favorite movie Is Mad max (isn't it for all us guys though?). I am working on the gas tanker trailer right now as i have some free space between commissions. I hope you all enjoy What I have created as i really do.

**Mr.Omega**

That looks undeniably cool.

**Purifier**

It works well. Good job!

**Demigod**

Very cool backstory....very nice model and paintjob. Nice share.

**Jimsolo**

Great work. Love the crew!

**jayjester**

please let us know what toy or model kit this was made from. I would very much appreciate it.

**Cave_Dweller**

Really awesome, those orks look like they're having a blast driving that rig!

**Daedricbob**

Fan-frakkin-tastic!

**Trondheim**

Well done!

**battlematt**

Well done sir. Needs more dakka. Cool story, great model, very good painting.

**Solosam47**

Way awesome! Can't wait to see the rest

**Arrathon**

Thank you everyone for the kind words. Since posting I added a Front plow (off of a chimera) Weathered the truck up some more. I will add pics of the updated truck. The trailer will be done ina few weeks, as my dad wants to do it together with my boys, Sort of a family project. Were going to find a glass display case for the truck trailer when it's all done. Glad you all enjoyed it!

**Victor.Drellings**

Definitely cool, reminds me of a giant 18 wheeler ork truck someone did on this site awhile back, I can't seem to find it though. :(

**Color Sgt. Kell**

Great idea and very cool

**suspiratus**

Love this little project of yours, having a massive personal touch to it.

**ThatEdGuy**

My only suggestion would be to weather the tires a bit (you may have done this after the update), but they look remarkably clean compared to the rest of the model.

**Arrathon**

I sure did. The tires, and rest of the truck has been giving a light dusting. I should of waited to take the photo's but i got excited lol. The Truck itself is now "done" I'll take more pics later today and post the final product

**M4cr0Dutch**

Beautiful! Nice story too. I have been out where Mad Max 2 was filmed; pretty lonely (apart from the snakes and the Wedge Tails).

**rustproof**

Thats real nice man, love the sentimental vibe.

**TheDraconicLord**

Very well done! It looks so good
