Thats really amazing. I can honestly say everything you release is getting better and better as time progresses. This might have to be another one I add to the list. And I thought I was doing buying stryker kits :D:D:D

Miloslav,
Although I am relatively new to this site, I have been impressed over and over with your skills as a builder and painter. This vehicle is yet another of your outstanding builds. The painting and weathering on your LAV are outstanding. Looking forward to seeing more of your builds in the future.

Very nice Miloslav your a show case for the LAV III / Stryker family, and with that I fear thats another Stryker that I'll need to get and another Real Model conversion. I do love Stryker's and the LAV III.

Can you tell me what paint you use for the base colour?

Mmm that only leaves the mortar carrier and FSV, can we expect these as conversions from Real Model for the AFV Club kit?

Luciano, thanks. I use Tamiya or Gunze Sangyo NATO Green and this mixed with Sand Yellow.
ESV no because this is maybe make off AFV (NO 100% MESSAGE) FSV I plan. Mortar is very interested because I have excellent reference material. But now I have plan for first four months.

Well ... having been around here for quite a while ... the feelings are much the same for me. Love your builds and always look for them, Miloslav. No matter what you build .. they always turn out great.

Milslav, a beautifully done peice. As a trucker my biggest cause of head shaking is the tires on most vehicals. You sir, have surpassed my expectations with the job you have done. My head shaking is now at the wonder that they look so real. Very fine job, looking forward to your next instalment here.

Wow Miroslav, that is very nice. You really need to publish a "How To" book on your building and weathering techniques.

Best Regards,

Brad
