"This is it, friends. The end for us. No panini to make it through the night. No campfire to make-a pizza. Not a single drop of vino left. Molto triste."

"Ciao! Anyone care for a Gnocchi? Help yourself, my truck is full of prelibatezze!"

Saved by their driver comrade and his trusty Cargo Maximus truck, the Dritalians make dinner and go to sleep. They'll live to fight another day in this harsh desert arena.

Nothing can stop this beast of a rig from cruising the Kolloseum, supporting gladiatores and making sure the ludi never end.

This is a nice build. Love the use of greyscale in the first pic to display the depression they feel, and this one feels like there is an actual setting with other builds to set a scene.

Style: 6 I realize the parts-count limits you a lot, but I feel like there may have been a better way to make the truck bed? Likewise, it is a pretty basic truck, though the articulation behind the cab is nice. Looks kind of like a caricature? A little cartoonish...

Substance: We're going to go with a 7 here. While the build is somewhat basic, it does have some nice features. I love that articulation you added to the cab, and you don't see a lot of 4 (or maybe 5?)-wide trucks these days.

Photography: 10 Lots of photos, nice parts breakdown, some interesting buttplug use, good focus, and you set the scene nicely using other builds. There is all kinds of goodness in this entry from the pictures alone.

Story: 10 There is a story here, and it is a good one. The vehicle has a purpose, it feels like it belongs in the intended setting, and context is a good thing.

I *love* this little thing. It's so cute and fun! Works perfectly in the bertverse and the little scene is a nice touch.
