Hello

Finished it on time :-) Last night I worked till 3 o'clock in the morning to get the job done. But here it is my entry for the S.I.K. FOR ya campaign a Tpz 1 Fuchs.
The fuchs saw action in 1997 in Bosnia during the German SFOR operations near Rajlovac. Vehicle is from the SFOR gepanzerter gefechtsverband.







Let me know what you think.

For everybody a happy new year
Cheers Roel

Nice one Roel.
I think you have captured the looks of this armoured "bus". I have ridden it several times in Afghanistan and it provide sufficiant protection on PSO missions.
Only one small thing: Try to crop the photos a bit. In that way it will be more Fuchs and less background.

Cheers
Erik

Hey Erik

Thanks for the reply. I'll try to change the pics next year That way I also will have more space for pics.

It's a pitty that not much armorama modellers like modern armor that much.....

Hapy new year and Cheers Roel

Hey Roel!

Looks good! Very convinsing model!
What colours did you use for the camo?

Paul

Hey Paul thanks.

I might take some new pics the sun really shines on the model. I used revell colours leather matt brown (revell nr 85) tarblack matt (revell nr 6) and bronze green matt (revell nr 65). For the dust underneath the vehicle I used light earth matt (humbrol 119).

I might remove the german cross and try to redo that again. I am very pleased with my work on this model.

Thanks for the comment paul and erik

Greetings Roel

There's a lot of modelers here who love Modern Armor! Just not as "vocal" a group I suppose... :-)

Nice work. I'm finishing up a M93 FOX conversion of this model kit. The only thing I thought a bit odd was the size of the wheels in the Revell kit. They appear a bit too large. Thoughts?

A very nice job, modern vehicles can be fun and you go to prove that diversity makes this an interesting hobby.

Excellent job (and much better than mine, also a Fuchs), and the real vehicle it´s great....nice entry, congrats
