Howdy all,
Been working on this for only a week. This is where I am at thus far. I want to finish it in that odd Royal Thai Digital camo.

Very Nice.
Thanks and keep posting.

what kit is this ? or is it a conversion ? If so who is MFG or is it a scratch build ? Looks great so far

Great build for a never seen before subject, at least to my knowledge.
The work on the barrel is excellent.

As John asked what kit/conversion is this?

Its a very interesting subject and the work so far is fantastic, especially on the turret.

Thank you all.
Here is a link to the guy who sells them. My understanding is that it is a SP Desgins turret and then Upper hull. Comes with a CD with build photos and photos of the real thing. You need BTR-70/80 Tires and suspension.

Fairly fast from Ukraine. He also offers a complete BTR-4 (next build) Makes a nice weapons set for the 1/35 Trump Hip as well

Howdy all,
Just finished up my build, now on to paint

So this thing takes First AND Second place, while third place ran away, or what?

Nice to see the build finished and I'm looking forward to seeing that digital camo in place, good luck with it Ryan.

A good looking model, I can't wait to see it with some paint on it.

Thanks for the info on the ebay seller. I think the BTR-4 just made it onto my buy and build list.

The BTR-4 kit is excellent kit. I am picking out parts from the spares box for a better interior. If ya get it let me know, as I have a ton of images saved.
