Ready for another one?!
Its the AM General Humvee.
So, why another Humvee model you ask?
I am not a fan of those who drive street vehicles that are too big for them
or vehicles that are just too big and heavy to handle on normal city streets.
I laugh when I see someone who can't park their monster four by four pick up truck in a Walmart parking lot.
And I think you should be trained and tested in whatever vehicle you plan to drive on the street.
I think anyone who drives a civilian Humvee (including H1, H2 and H3 Hummers) needs a lesson in common road sense.
They all seem to be the worst drivers.
Having said that...I think the Humvee (Military) is an amazing vehicle.
I was amazed by the original Lamborghini powered prototype and what it evolved into,
and even more amazed at the longevity and proven performance of the AM General HMMWV.
And, they provide a substantial amount of protection for soldiers.
What a great replacement for the Jeep.
I've wanted to do a small Humvee model for some time, but there are already a few out there.
so I wondered if it was really necessary...mine wouldn't be any better, right?.
And, when I created the Easy-Build Humvee model, another Humvee model became even more redundant.
But, the other day I came across some old artwork for a small Humvee I had started,
and so I decided to go ahead and create a KoolWheelz scale Humvee model.
This one is actually based on my Easy Build model artwork, but with a chassis and 3D wheels.
I've also added a number of layering parts to give more detail.
I was originally hoping to put out a Canadian themed Humvee
...but the Canadian Armed Forces do not keep or use Humvees in regular Canadian Army service.
They have used Humvees in the Middle East (for special forces operations working alongside the US ground forces),
but those Humvees are not specifically marked in any way...just your standard desert tan colours.
So, thats what I have created...a basic sand coloured HMMWV...KoolWheelz style.
You can call it Canadian if you like.
Or 'Murican...or whatever.
You can find it in the Specialz section...under Military.
