Thanks!! Sorry,I don't make vids only pics. My techniques are inspired from the one depicted in magazines or tutorial from well known modellers that can be seen everywhere.
You do a great job with the pics! I received the pictures from 18 Bravo via web transfer...Wow!!
Guys I know I am new to this site, but if you are going to take the time to build the Buffalo contact 18 Bravo for a complete set of reference pics of this machine. I don't think he missed a single inch of the Buffalo.

When you paint your lights, do you only paint silver behind the clear glass part or on the other part of the light? They looks so real...
Thanks for the photos of the buffalo kit.... It's the best buffalo model i have ever seen
Looking forward to start on mine very soon...

Tires are nicely-weathered. Are they resin, vinyl or plastic OOB?
Trying to decide whether to buy this one or the new kit with spaced armor?

Some work is needed for cleaning the slats, but no more than building them PE piece after piece like I make for my D9, Warrior or Stryker.

As Henk said, as always a great job... As usual...
I like your kit very much, the colour, everything is perfect...
I will save all photos as a reference when i have come so far on my kit.... Together with the amazing photos from Robert Skipper..
Will you have any stowage on the kit? Will we see this kit also in a magazine later, hope so...
The kit ended up VERY nice...

https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/222210It seems the spare wheel is rarely put on the roof because of its weight.

But it was !!! see pics in the linked post
Buffaloes generally travel as part of a route clearance package, which includes at least one HEMMT wrecker. Wheels can be lifted with the Hemmitt crane.
