Hi people!

First of all, I would like to thanks Guido Adorno because his Buffalo is fantastic and it was inspirational for me.

I started it yesterday. So far I did the suspention and add some details to the chassis.

It is my first Bronco model and I like it.

Here are the photos:














Cheers!

Marco

Hi Marco, welcome back !!

Great work so far.
Is that the version with Slat Armour ?

The cables & wiring were from the kit or did you scratch build them ?

Abraço !

Hi John!

Thanks man!

No, there isn't. It is the first Buffalo.

And no, some details aren't so good and I decided to use some waring. In other parts, Bronco calls to use vinil tubs, but twisted wire is better.

Cheers!

Marco

Hi people!

A little update:

A mostly finnished the suspentions.

The rear suspention is a nigthmare. It has almost 70 pieces and get the correct aligniment is hard, but at the end it looks great!

Now I'm thinking about the brake chambers and their armor plates.

Can you help me? Is there squared front brakes armor?

Here are the pics:















Cheers!

Marco

Hi guys!

I finished the under part of the beast. I used my son's guitar strings as air hoses.

I started the interior. I made a new stash to put over the AC cabinet.

Here the pics:

















I hope you like.

Cheers!

Marco

Hi people!

Here another update of my Buffalo.

I finished the interior assembly and painted most of the base colors. I used Vallejo Nato Green, that I will use to paint the exterior part, light ruber, red and deck tan automotive paint to fabric part.

Now, lots of little detais to paint and after that, I'll start the weathering.

Here the pics, hope you like.











Cheers!

Marco

Hi people!

An update:

I almost finnished paint the interior. I used VA and Humbrol paints.

Now, I'm doing some bags and boxes to put inside the beast. I hope I can close the cabin next weekend.

Better late than never...

Now, some update on my Buffalo:

I closed the extreme truck and started to build the PE parts.

It wasn't so dificult, but it has lots of tiny parts.

Here are the pics:























I started the eletronics too:







Thank you for viewing guys!

Cheers!

Marco

Great job so far Marco! I'm subscribing to this thread so I can use some of your work, hints, and tips to help me with my Canadian version.

Thanks!

Bob

Hi Bob!

Thanks a lot man!

It is a great kit and Voyager PE is fantastic too.

Do not forget to show your Buffalo for us.

Cheers!

Marco

THAT instrument panel looks very sweet Marco! Yours will be hard to live up to when I get my kit.






Jeff

Thank you Jeff, but I need to say that panel is a great piece and it helps a lot the paint job as the decals.

Cheers!

Marco

Hi guys!

Now, some update on my Buffalo. At this fase, it is hard to see some progress, because everything is little.

Here some pics of the "new" PE parts.





















BTW, I need some tips about tint armored glass using Tamiya clear green. Can someone help me?

Thank you!

Marco

Thanks a lot Gavin!

Today I need to decid what I want to do with the armored glass. I tryied actual automotive film and didn't like the result.

Let's see.

Cheers!
