Hi all
I've just finished this kit by Trumpeter. It was a nice experience despite the insane part count (more than 1000 parts).
Except with some Friul track links I had in the spare box and I decided to use, the build was out of the box.
It has been painted with Hataka NATO green as base paint and weathered with XF-52 Flat Earth and different MIG pigments references.











More pictures and a full article available on my site.

Currently working o the RFM Abrams breacher vehicle. After seeing your build I may have to get one to display alongside the Abrams.

They would represent a nice pair. You have the choice between the Trumpeter early BMR-3 and the enhanced Meng BMR-3M which is features a different casemate layout and an improved KMT.

Hi;

I have built the Meng kit, and have the Trumpy kit in my stash, and the Meng kit was Superb, and I put A Miniart KMT-9 on the front. The BMRs are really different and adds Vehicles that are A nice change from MBTs !
Again Nice Job Olivier !!!!

CHEERS; MIKE.
