Thanks very much guys,this is typical of what I was doing back in the day,concentrating on the vehicle and only adding stuff that was relevent and immediant to the vehicle,course in the desert there`s not a whole lot of buildings around for one to add.
In the next day or two I will put up another desert scene that does have a hint of a structure. Thanks again for all the comments.

Very nice build! The weathering is up to your usual standard...that poor truck looks like it's gone some hard desert miles. Super stuff once again!

Desert Portee
Posted by sasd on Sunday, March 20, 2005 9:57 AM
This is the Italeri version of the Bedford QL gun portee.I added the 6lbr from Tamiya and a scratched stowage/ammo trailer. I sometimes wonder if all of these desert units weren`t somehow interconnected with each other.
