Miloslav, very, very nice. What did you decide to use for the straps? How did you like the way the kit went together?

Nice work on your Stryker. The Real Model stowage looks very good too.

My only constructive comments are that the bed rolls/duffle bags on the hull top look a bit shiny on the ends and the lower hull is nicely weathered but there is not dust or dirt at all on the packs hanging off the sides.

Slat armor! I think that as PE is very good but very expensive. More modeler have vith big PE problems.
Resin slat is very bad because resin slat with twist.
Very good plastic slat, maybe Dragon.

Very nice build! The weathering looks great! Your model does look like the real thing (which I've seen and been in). Great job!

Regarding Slat Armor, I wonder if any manufacturer cares to make the passive block armor as someone posted.

Really nice Stryker, mine is still in its box and I'll save your pics as reference !
I'll probably wait till a slat armor set is issued before starting the building though. I'm patient as my stash is quite large today

Wow.

Great job on the truck. The detailing is superb, First thing I noticed was the velcro strips...that is something that I would expect people to forget!
