Those wheels look like they should be checked for pressure regularly. They look like the real thing. Great job! :)

The improvements:
- added interior (I modified the interior dedicated to another Tatras)
- on windows I used transparencies.
- steering wheel improved rubber seal
- I made 3D lights
- On Rear-view mirrors I use a mirror foil
- I improved wheels (with tread)
- on the pollution truck I used dry yellow pastel and sand
- I made the base from bulletin boards (A4)
- I used brown and green powder
- I made the pile sand from modeling clay and on the top I used sand
- I used pallets who did toudi_sk to papermodelers.sk

These models don't look so appealing when they are flat pieces on a paper. It takes a special talent to bring this to life. You sure did. This is an awesome truck, and it wouldn't look that good if I did it, for sure! :)
