Balloon tires, heavy-duty look, sharp styling. It's a work-in-progress.
I intended to work in a tiny nod to the 1910s and '20s styling with a copper/gold logo spelling "Ursus" embedded in the grille, but I got lazy. Ursus is a district of Warsaw which was one of the industrial hubs of Poland. Ursus used to build tractors, trucks, buses, etc. Now there are only abandoned factories, a ten minutes' walk from my house.
This new un-named Ursus model would be a nuclear-powered workhorse for the mid-21st century, to be used everywhere in different variants from the Antarctic to the Moon. "Ursus" means "bear", fitting since it has a bulky yet sleek design and it would make a good symbol for the interplanetary spread of Slavic heavy machinery.
Next phase: logo, added detail, more varied variants, MOAR AXLES.
Drawn by hand, scanned onto computer and improved on MS Paint.

If you can get an Adobe Illustrator demo, this would be a breeze for you to craft.

One must suffer to art.
No but seriously it didn't take much longer than an hour to convert it from this to these.
