Kalahare Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 Hi friends, there is another MOC from my factory. It is heavy truck for pulling heavy load trailers (e.g. trailers with buldozers, cranes, excavators...) I take as a example (in my country famous) TATRA 813 8x8. There is result (still in construction ): Quote
lightningtiger Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 I'm not nornally a fan of 8 wide trucks, but this one is very good indeed ! Very well detailed right down to the clearance lights and mud flaps - even ther colours are cool too, love to see this as a fire truck ! Excellent job, 'Kalahere' ! Quote
Sammael Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 (edited) Looks great! What's more, it doesn't look too difficult to build - unlike many MOCs, I might even attempt to build this myself. Edited December 29, 2009 by Sammael Quote
Kalahare Posted December 29, 2009 Author Posted December 29, 2009 (edited) Thank You for comments, my friends. I'm not nornally a fan of 8 wide trucks, but this one is very good indeed ! I have lot of 8-wide models, this width allows more details in the front part. But this scale is not ideal for Lego City roads, I agree. This truck was in real also in firefighting modification (ladder, water or foam tanker). Edited December 29, 2009 by Kalahare Quote
Milan Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 I like to see 8 wide vehicles! It does not fit very well in the city, but I like it still Excellent truck, Milan It looks heavy and tough, just like it is meant to be! What do you plan to add here? Quote
MdrnMrvls Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 Really nice, heavy duty look to it. Good job! Quote

What next? My dream is to build this truck with TRAILER, but now I am in brainstorming phase or this one: Edited December 29, 2009 by Kalahare Quote
Loganwan Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 Hi Milan, thank You for this comment. What next? My dream is to build this truck with TRAILER, but now I am in brainstorming phase or this one: I don't think your design is too far off from those pics. It is very nice indeed. With the trailer, it looks like you would just need some smaller, thinner tires. The trick with off sized vehicles (tall truck, short trailer) is getting the two to match without having to create a giant mess to hook them together. I have had this problem in the past too. The design is great. I really like the yellow color scheme. SNOT is always fun. A tough work horse for sure. Quote
