Hope it works this time. Here is a progress shot of my TUA based on the Academy M113 kit. The upper hull and turret are scratchbuilt and there is a detailed interior. the glacis and engine deck are from a Tamiya kit because my dog got hold of the Academy parts and chewed them to bits.

Hey fredenburg. It doesnt work to put the page address in the [img] formula. Right click on the actual picture and click on preferences. Then copy the url of the picture from here. You need to pull down while copying as it doesnt show the full url. Hopefully you understand what I mean.
Nice model and nice subject by the way!

Got it. thanks for that.

Now that I figured out how it works, here is the interior

Very nice work Paul. The interior looks excellent.
Chuck

Looks great! What did you use as reference material?

Michael

Oh WOW !
I love the interior. Is that all scratchbuilt, After market parts, kit or a combo of the forementioned?

Looks Cool

looks very nice. Are you going to keep the top loose so you can display that nice interior?

Cliff

Absolutely fabulious! That is one charrey looking Canadian slammer! Interior is fantastic! can't say enough good about this one! What is the exterior colors going to be?

Your TUA is great. Having spent some time in 1 RCR AAP Pl. I've always wanted to make one but am not quite ready to scratch build all those parts. Awesome job.

VERY NICE WORK.

I have some drawings of the actual vehicle so I could make it as accurate as possible. The interior is all scratcbuilt. i modified the missile tubes from the Tamiya TOW Mutt and cast them in resin. The tripod has a PE body which I produced myself in a fit of overenthusiasm. I've stuck the lid down, but the hatches will all be left open leaving the interior visible. I plan on painting it with the 3 colour NATO SCAPP scheme with SFOR markings.

it looks great. You even included c-7 rifles. cant wait to see the finished product.

Cheers,
Paul

Looking good, maybe one of these days I'll finish mine :-) Hey are you or Jeep selling TOW missiles?

Not yet. sounds like a good potential product. We have to get the C1 off the ground first.

WOW man very nice work, that looks great, cant wait to see the finished kit

Bender

Great model so far...I'll wait anxious to see the painting job, since got one of this Academy kits in stack...
Cheers and keep up the good work

Paul, looking forward to that. Right now I'm converting a Leo A5 to a C2. The TUA was getting fustrating so I put it aside for a bit.

Do you have the dimensions of the turret basket?

Not yet but this weekend I'm gonna bear down and head over to the Strats and get some pics and measurements before I go on my PLQ

I would appreciate scans of any photos you get as well as the measurements.

Very nice scratch building. How long did it take?

I've been working on it off and on for the last several years, in between deployments and so on. I'd say there is about 100 hours in it so far. At least my wife knows where I am.
