Hi all,
Here is photos from build progress my new conversion set.
Base model is Trumpeter ASLAV. Conversion set include PE parts and resin parts with wheels set.
I plane green color form Europe- KFOR or SFOR.

The conversion looks excellent.

Great to see the mantlet has been corrected.

Have you thought about including a modified C6 for the turret with the spade grips?

The completed model could be SFOR.....but not KFOR. In Kosovo the Coyotes had the add-on armour mounted.

Like your other conversions it looks top notch Miloslav. Does it come with the modern water/ fuel cans because I need some. Cheers, Jeff.

The Coyote looks fantastic.

Why did you use the ASLAV as the base instead of the LAV-25 kit?

I use for my conversion set ASLAV because for many modeler is problem fit new grille.
Also ASLAV include turret basket.

On the left-hand side of the Coyote, just in front of the rear jerry can on your model, there is a hatch there. How did you model that, as it isn't on the ASLAV kit?

I'm still working away on my first conversion, and I must say it is teaching me a lot! I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would.
