Wow.  Honestly I did not think that such a realistic looking Hummer
could be made at that scale.  The rounded bricks are a good match for
the roof, and the doors are clever.  The texture from the studs on the
doors make them look more rugged, just like a real Hummer.  Great
work!

I agree that the wheels look a tad bit too small.  I don't think I
know about any wheels that are just a bit larger.  Perhaps the 30.4
Technic VR wheels?  Or are they the same size?

(...) Thanks! (...) They're the same size, and lower profile. a 4x4 circle is almost exactly the right size...unfortunately, they don't look very good as wheels/tires, and they're too close in size to the tires I used for LEGO to have made tires (...) (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.build)

Does anyone have any suggestions for improvement before I take the complete photo shoot? I have a feeling that the wheels are half a stud to a stud too small, but I don't know which wheels to use instead: (URL) Lambrecht bram@cwru.edu (URL) (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.build)
