thanks. Still adding to it. I'm going very slow on this one, trying to add as much detail as possible. I'm still deciding what vehicle to use though.

Hey Tiking not sure if you are a vet yourself but I was there from april to october of 03' I have some pictures you might be able to use. Also for the truck I would suggest a HEMTT if you can find one or a HETT we used those quite extensively. Also the only units with woodland camo were the 101st and the ANG and AR units (at least while I was there)

Thanks alex for your comments. as mentioned before in my first post, which you probably didn't read; I said that the trailer is not part of the dio and that it was still incomplete.

Looks really cool. The only thing is that the trailer isn't weathered enough. Try to weather it more, other wise it looks great.

Thanks. Glad you like it. I can't wait until it's done. Still trying to decide what vehicle to use though.

Thanks for the interest. The theme is basically a transport convoy on it's way to Bagdad with more supplies for thier troops. As mentioned the rig in the pic is just tempory until I finish building the proposed rig.

Looking like you've got a great dio going together there, can't wait to see the finished photos. Care to give a little more info on what you've got going on here? I enjoy hearing about the builders thought processes with their projects.

A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.

Still adding more detail to the dio. The trailer being displayed is just temporary. I'm using using another vehicle which I have not built yet but I think the trailer fits pretty well.
