Kim,
this is the BEST AFV I've ever seen since I'm surfing on the web through plastic models web sites.
Really fantastic job, inspirational.
Hope this will be published in the future.
Compliments, and thanks for sharing with us the results of your job.

Hi all
I really appreciate your encouragement to all of you.
Now comes the exterior and base for Bradley.
And I would like to write a book but I'm wondering if it is possible to publish it.
Anyways, I'll come again with finished Bradley.
Many thanks again.
Kim.

Most incredible! Must be the best interior I've ever seen and your painting is great! Now I'm looking forward to the exterior...
Cheers!

Hi all.
I'm almost finished with the painting works of my bradley.
The only thing left to do is making vignette base with two or three figures.
Here are the photos of my painting.









You could see my painted Bradley if you visit my blog.
I'm posting the course of making it by stages.
Many thanks!
Kim.

Kim,
Your painting and weathering are very good, and almost to the extremely high level of your scratch building skill!
Please don't forget about the Headlights, Taillights, etc. (pictures from Prime Portal):
Keep up the incredible work...

ESSAYONS!

Hi Kim,
That is detailing a model to the extreme. It is a piece of art you have there. One question, in earlier build photos, I saw you have clearly scratch built the mechanical arm for the rear loading ramp.

But that is no longer there?

Just curious.
Cheers

Hi Christian.
Thank you for your interest.
And I did the Camo with Humbrol enamel colors.
More specifically, the humbrol MATT33(black) with about 10% of MATT67(tank grey) were used for the NATO black and the number MATT226(interior green)
with 15% of MATT33(black) were painted for the NATO green.
Finally, in matters of the NATO brown, I used bumbrol MATT186(brown) as it is.
I hope it will help you.
Many thanks.

Hi Jeff.
I'm so flattered.
And I won't forget to paint what you said.
Actually, I'm seriously thinking about the way to paint the lights as realistically as possible.
Thank you again.

Hi Paul.
You must have had a keen observing eye.
Like you said, it's not installed yet.
Of course it will be installd when the base I planned is done.
Many thanks.

This is simply astounding, real precision work! But I have to ask, what scale is the Bradley? An Abrams or other MBT would be a pretty awesome build!

My god this is insane!!! Hands down this is one of the best 1/35 model ive ever seen, nothing else can compare! I think im going to have to quit modelling cos no matter what I do I dont think any of my models will ever be this detailed.
Truly this is the most awesome build ever. You should write a book!
Could not have put it better myself. This is amazing!!!

Looking through your weblog I've finally seen your BRADLEY.
I quote ALL previous comments posted here: it is simply a MASTERPIECE !
Thanks Kim for all your WIP steps shared during the past three years, hoping to see a dedicated book about this state-of-the-art 1/35 AFV model.

In a word:
믿을 수 없는! 나는 이 실에서 그것을 어딘가에 놓칠지도 모르는가, 그러나 당신은 무슨 장비를 당신의 구조를 위해 당신의 기초로 이용했는가? 그것은 Tamiya 또는 아카데미 이다 (또는 또 다른 한개?) 게다가, 당신은 또한 1/35의 가늠자에 아래로 긴축하기 위하여 당신이 사용하는 장치를 디자인하고 건설했는가 그래서 당신은 이것에 종사할 수 있는가?==)
I might have missed it somewhere in this thread, but what kit did you use as your basis for your build? Is it the Tamiya or Academy (or another?)
Furthermore, did you also design and build the device you use to shrink yourself down to 1/35 scale so you can work on this?
