I am planning an M113 Dozer, but I might do an M113 ARVL using the new Maple Leaf Models kit.

Howdy fellas,

Good to see a place where we can all get an idea of what everyone's building for this emerging Campaign. Good jod Stormbringer!

Here is a photo of the vehicle I am planning on building and submitting for your approval. But PLEASE, make note. The photo is not a picture of mine. It is one of the only photos I could find on the web of this vehicle in a completed state. It is taken from a Japanese web site, and is of a kit built up by a Japanese modeler. I use it just for reference and illustration. That said......



I will be making fairly significant upgrades/changes to the basic kit, which for the record is the 'Bluetank' kit. Although, probably most of which will really not be noticed.

Tread

BEST of luck to all participants!!

Oh, and before I forget.....'Roo's building an Australian Rec/Engineering vehicle with a CMP style cab?.........Cliff, ya gotta stop with these shocker's mate!.......now where's my nitroglycerin pills? My heart can't take this..........

2 M88s. I have both started a year ago... but left them to the side and they are still sitting there. I must finish both to complete the campaign. One is AFV Clubs M88A1 and the other is Revells M88A1G. Thanks God its a long haul campaign ... if the final date was due shortly, Id have to pull out now! Good luck chaps!
I will also be building the bluetank kit along with tread. It looks like its gonna need a lot of attention as well!

T-2 (M31) TRV, highly detailed outside & inside (at least that is the plan).

The base kit, as one might expect, is the Tamiya M3 Lee, with all its faults & flaws.
I also have the Calibre-35 M31 conversion kit.
To those, I am adding the Verlinden M3 Lee Interior, and
a bunch of parts from the Tamiya M26 DW Tractor, and
a bunch of PE & misc parts.

And, I have the Army TM & many other references to help.

Looking forward to interchange of info with PvtParts on this ...

PS: TankCarl, I've got the Army TM 9-738 & an Ordnance School manual on the M32 if you have any gray areas I can help out with.

PPS: Tread', have you tried Portrayal Press to see if they have the TM & can special print it for you ? Costly option, but one I've used several times to get the ref mat'l I needed.

Howdy jRatz,

Thx for the suggestion of Portrayal Press, I'll give them a hollar and see if they have such a thing.

The kit's not all that bad, and I don't want to turn this into a 'super detail' exercise, so depending upon the cost, we'll see.

Tread.
