Iveco Stralis Hi-Way Euro 5 Swiss Army Edition

[Oldmopars]

I have had this kit started for several months, but I kept running into a block as to what to do with the paint. Nothing seemed to hit me right. No color seemed to speak to me, so I asked the question if OD green would work. I got a response that the Swiss Army has a contract with Iveco to supply them with trucks, and the Stralis 4x2 was on the list. So, inspired I build this truck.

I put the EcoStralis decals on it, because it seemed like the thing the Swiss Army would order. Some Swiss plates and no chrome.

Nice build!  Which kit is this built from?

Thanks. One of these days I want to tackle a European truck. I like your use of an out of the ordinary paint scheme.

I like it! I think everyone should take outdoors pics, they always make things look more realistic.
