Bought this model from QRF a while ago with a few other pieces including a M1A2 which I refuse to show, the Oshkosh model is a beast but I had a lot of problems with it as not completely cast or formed especially the wheels and undercarriage but finally with some angry bodging got it to stay together but the paint job shows a lack of interest on my part but still an impressive beast......
.......16 tons, 8 wheels, nearly 34 feet long, capable of 62 mph and nicknamed the Dragon Wagon!
Very pretty!!! =D
ReplyDeleteNice one!
ReplyDeleteI've seen of of these Dragon Wagons's 'in-the-flesh' at the Military & Flying Machines event in Upminster. Here's a link to one of my pictures Dragon Wagon. They are huge, bloody noisy (especially when carrying a Tank!) and an incredible sight.
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty impressive looking. I think you still did a great job, even if you were disinterested.
ReplyDeleteAre those barrels of crude in the back of the Dragon Wagonzz? Begin stockpiling those reserves now Angry!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to find an oilfield nearby!
DeleteVery nice! I know that disinterested emotion well - it's when I give the whole thing a wash of diluted Devlan Mud and a light drybrush of white and call it "moody"... :-P
ReplyDeleteThats one very big Molotov cocktail on wheels...
ReplyDeleteWow the dragon wagon looks like it could burn half that fuel it's hauling just by driving to the corner store and back. Anyway, neat model, too bad about the casting problems. That's always frustrating :/
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a beast of a truck :)
ReplyDeleteLooks good for a lack of interest model!
ReplyDeleteNice and I like the weathering.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
A monstrous E X C E L L E N T!
ReplyDeleteNice work Fran!
Beautiful blue barrels! :D
ReplyDeleteThe barrels are cool, and I like the weathering too.
ReplyDeleteNice beast of a wagon there.. even for a non impressed painting on it..
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with the paint. Like the barrels.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beast! I assume it needs all the fuel in the back just to get it from A to B!
ReplyDeleteWhy wont you show the Abrams?
ReplyDeleteIve not had good luck with QRF. Poor models and crappy shipping times have caused me to pretty much give up on their stuff.
BTW, the HEMTT looks nice too! Great work on the weathering
DeleteThe model is awful,also seems too small, I may have to go 20mm to find a good one!
DeleteAre that barrels with Irish whisky? :-D
ReplyDeleteVery nice painted models!

Nice looking truck.
ReplyDeleteLee Hadley thats the older WWII era dragon wagon. very different beasties.
ReplyDeleteLooks good to me AL, makes me itchy to go and finish up mine.
ReplyDeleteThat's an impressive looking vehicle.
ReplyDeleteNice job! Your "lack of interest" paintjob looks better than "full-on inspired" paintjobs.
ReplyDeleteGood one Fran, these are new and love the vehicles and the detailed paint job on that one.
ReplyDeleteVery nice work there Angry!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love the little barrels. So cute. Do they come out?
ReplyDeletefrom experience, i can say that looks like the real thing.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope no one shoots that truck, it would really go boom!
ReplyDeleteNow there is the fuel for the General's AFVs. Or, maybe...toxic waste headed for the Rayonian border.
ReplyDeleteShhhhhhhhh!
DeleteLovely. Really like the oil drums in particular.
ReplyDeleteI know oil drums dont explode when you shoot them but wouldnt that be something if they did? That hauler would make quite a boom! lol.
ReplyDeleteImpressive wingspan on the Dragon Wagon! Very nice.
ReplyDeleteJust how tactical is a 16 ton truck? I hope it can do more than just carry barrels.
ReplyDeleteNice work on it, though. All your stuff is impressive.
I like the look of it, it has the right look for something hauling crap, even if it's expensive crap
ReplyDeleteIan
those look fun to drive
ReplyDeleteVery nice, colours and details!
ReplyDeleteNice one Fran!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't see how you can say the paint job shows a lack of interest, the amount of detail is really amazing in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteNice model though, i would love to drive on in real lif, if ever i win the lottery im buying one. I like the damaged one, it gives a sense of action. Im guessing strategy is more important in these games than gung ho attacks. You can always accitdentally in purpose knock the table over if your losing.
ReplyDeleteThose are very cool. any idea what else could be carried, Rayonian POW heaving to the refinary these barrels came from
ReplyDeleteOh, those are oil barrels. I thought they were beer kegs. A truck that size full of beer would do wonders for morale.
ReplyDeleteNice work Fran.
Very nice.. the broken Humvee must have been fun eh?
ReplyDeleteI say they are very nice there Fran. With that truck you could drive it up to the Rayonian Compound and BOOM, lol.
ReplyDeleteWOW that truck turned out really really well!!!
ReplyDeleteThat last picture is awesome. The paint job on the vehicle and the terrain is so fantastic that it looks real. Wait a minute... that IS real!!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent job on those!
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the little barrels!
ReplyDeleteThat's a badass truck! Amazing paint work. Now... can I pretend the barrels are all full of beer? Then it would truly be my dream truck...
ReplyDeleteThe Dragon Wagon. Pretty cool. Do the oil drums come out?
ReplyDeleteA wonderful model. I like a lot the paint colour.
ReplyDeleteI´m thinking about one of these in 28mm...
Best regards.
Looks like the real deal!
ReplyDeleteWell, you certainly did a good job on the assembly as it looks excellent all painted up. Its a ride any soccer-mom would be envious of. Well done!
ReplyDeleteA beast of a truck! But given the theme in some other recent blog posts can we be sure that those aren't beer kegs in the ???
ReplyDeleteNot a lot would get in the way of that.
ReplyDeleteI walk by these in real life all the time, looks pretty accurate. - thanks for the post
ReplyDeleteTake a stop by my blog and check it out if you get a chance.
