Been working on this for a while. Not 100% complete but almost. Still got some dents to immitate on the cab and more weathering on the trailer chassi & container; but all-in-all, is pretty much done.

Excellent diorama. Looks like someone has some explaining to do when they get back!

It took me some time to understand that the first picture was your model.
Thought is was a real one.
Great job.

Excellent idea and great modeling. I like the detail of the blown front tire and the cab contents scattered around. Your groundwork is done really well too.

Great job, took me a sec to get that it was a model. What scale is this? If it's 1/35 or 1/32, it'd be great to put a State Trooper figure there filing a report.
