Yep, I know this is not an airplane, but anyway...
With previous (not-so-lucky) builds I managed to to break the spell, and finally here's a model I'm very happy with

Of course it is all brush painted and weathered using oil wash and mix of pigments. I used magnificent Extratech PE set (not so fancy like Eduard's, but nevertheless useful), and had to scratchbuild hosts for pneumatic lines which allowed driver to vary the tire pressure from inside the cab. These lines run form the hull to each of wheels...
Hopes you likes it!
BTW, I've seen pics of it flying - in 1959 in Florida Americans did some tests with installed retractable hydrodynamic wings, which made it amphibious hydroglider. It was appropriately named "Flying Duck"
More on that in the Foulis, Haynes book "The GMC6x6 and DUKW. A Universal Truck"
