From what I can tell, the model looks fantastic. For such a simple scheme, it's easy to see that a great variety of color is present. However, the photos themselves are a bit, umm, hazy? It's difficult to see any of the crisp details. Also, the windows look lik they fit poorly? Also (this always seems to bother me more than anything on any model with which it is present), It is quite easy to see in several of the photos  (particularly the first three) that numerous bits of fibers and fuzz have secured themselves to the model. These are probably from some tissue or cotton swaps used during the weathering process. I NEVER use either of these. I rely on either my finger, or a tightly-woven cotton cloth where others would use tissue or cotton swabs.

Though that may sound negative, the model looks quite good. The colors flow very well, and it looks realistic. The accessories and stowage (chain, cable etc) add a nice touch, as does the mesh and screen. Good job.

What military uses this thing? It looks more like something from "Mad Max" or something that eather the A-Team or MacGyver come up with

I think the markings are Pakistani. I'm not sure about the sure of an air force roundel on an army vehicle though.

Standard mediocre results as usual.  The truck is all confused on gear and the weapons too.  The ficticious gun mount is nowhere near strong enough to withstand firing either.  The WWII weapons  (German K98 rifles in the back, an out of date British 6 pdr AT gun) and gear (Israeli water cans) look way out of place on a modern Russian truck.  The seam lines on all the gear is sloppy.  The added M113 items (floating tools and air cleaner on the front bumper) are way wrong.  This is just a joke and a sloppy build to top it off.  Another examply of "I don't care about realism or quality...Anything is possible...blah, blah, blah.." BS.

Well, exen if it's sort of far-fetched, the basic idea is there (a 6x6 military truck with a huge cannon)

I think it looks more like a plot for the A-Team: traped in Pakistan, the A-Team needed a way to bust out of the airfield where they were being held. In a few days, this truck was what they came up with.

As they busted down the gate, Hannibal fires one last round from the cannon, causing an armored car to explode in a fireball before it's crew could get close to it.

It's your kit, you build it any way you want it. Realism is not a super-important factor unless you plan to place it in a contest where the judges are super rivet-counters

Actually, he didn't build anything.  It is one of the works of his "professional modellers" that he pays to build as many as they can as quickly as they can.  More mediocrity as usual.

Take a look at a close-up of the 3rd picture down.  Look at the gaps around the windshields.  Somebody's gonna end up with some bugs in their teeth!

It still would be funny to see what happens if the gun was actually fired!  I'm pretty sure the crew would be fairly un-happy with the results!

Gun-bunnies the coolest people!!  Bow Down

Yeah i agree with pretty much everything there. If you wanna build some badass insane looking vehicle that doesn't seem remotely possible, Nazi Germany has you covered. And at least those were really produced. I mean there's some really cool WWII stuff out there. I don't see the point in creating fictitious modern vehicles that aren't even remotely plausible. Hey, at least the paint job is reasonable though. If the build wasn't so unrealistic, and a higher quality model kit was chosen, it would look quite good, with regards to paint and weathering.

AND THOSE ARE DEFINITELY NOT k98s. They're lee enfields. Yeah inaccurate nonetheless.
