1:18 Militia Guntruck (Occupied Southeast US, Georgia Unit)
Most militia units -which had no interface with SOF's or other military remnants in the southeast- relied on whatever they could find. Simple civilian trucks, cars, jeeps, were converted to light and heavily armed vehicles. Using variety of weapons. Although the invaders considered these militia groups as minor threat. They played key roles in disrupting some alien operations. Most operations involved hit-and-run attacks on smaller invader scout units. Others would provide fire coordinates to US artillery in unoccupied areas of invader targets. This particular truck sported a 37mm cannon. Taken from a collector it was hoisted into the back of a Dodge Ram 3200. Steel plates, tank tracks, were placed on sides and front of truck. The cannon was very effective against invader infantry. |

Thanks everyone! Used a 1:18 diecast Dodge 3200 truck. Took most time creating the crumpled-in effect on the left side. The cannon is 1:18 German Flak 37mm AA gun (3D print model). The weathering used combination of wash and more weathering powder. The armor is made from clapboard pattern styrene. The flatbed side armor used combination styrene and 1:16 scale T-55 tank track links. The shutter and side panels on the can can be raised and lowered. The front panel slides off. And the individual rear side panels are removable. Still work left to do mainly on the interior of the cab.
