M.A.N. - Burnt Out Cab

[tiking]

I have been experimenting lately with different burnt out effects lately. As you can see in some pics I have tried simulating carbon fibers as they literally tear into almost thread-like material, by using disinfection wipes. It looks 'OK' but not quite perfect. I have added more modulation effects on the cab and more weathering on the overall cab and truck as a whole.

The right tyre is flat. It is difficult to tell with all the ashes surrounding it. And yes, my reference photo had a similar attribute. I know most would wonder why the right tyre did not get burnt to a crisp like the left tyre...
In most cases depending on the degree of the fire and where it was most intense. I have seen photos with similar attributes.

I think , I am satisfied with the results , especially, after taking some outside photos of the model. What do you guys think?

Looks absolutely real! Rear lights can be improved though.

Looks definitely awesome!
Wouldn't the right front tire take more damage?

I'm so sorry to see what someone has done to your model!
Who would do such a thing?
Vandals!

Horrible, isn't it?
