Hi Karl and John,

Thanks for taking the time to look and post.

John, I have a couple of figures in mind that might suit.

Thanks

Alan that looks superb the only thing i would add is crew to give it some extra character

Some great work here I like the worn and weathered look.

The clutter in the back of it is a superb touch

Great work alan.

A nice model Alan, I really like the paint and weathering. I read the build log and like this conversion, you've done an awesome job. The clutter and radios give it a lived in look.

Hi Rob and James,

Thanks guys. The original blog got turned into a buld feature which is located here:

https://armorama.kitmaker.net//features/2410

James, figures will come along when I have thought about a home for it sometime in the future, when I started this one I really just wanted to have a go at building the truck.

Thanks again.

Al
