Hi all,
I have the Hobby Boss kit to build and would like to know which colors is the interior of this amtrac.
I guess the walls and ceiling are sea foam but how is the floor?
I'd like to depict a well used vehicle as most of the repair vehicles usually look. What color(s) would be the most appropriate for scratches and other "battle" damage?
As HB do not give any paint refs in their instructions, where could I find color instructions for the numerous details to be painted?
That makes a lot of questions I fear but any answer will be most welcome.

TIA
Olivier

Salut Olivier

Even though they don't show the recovery version, I guess you'll find some interesting detail pics here :

You can check out this build as well :

I've got some "R-7" interior pics at home that I can send you when I'm back home from work...

In the meantime, you'll find a few pics of an Italian Army one here :

But it may differs from a USMC one, detail-wise...
