Hi all,

It's the M-8 Greyhound from Italeri.
Some mayor modifications has made to the original kit. Like opening the hatches and adding PE.

Hi Martin!

Looks like an interesting project, I like the interior!
At some places it looks like you are using too much glue, but it's OK.

Keep posting!

Looks great to me. I don't know how you can see some of the things you put in there, really impressive.

Crikey! Most impressive!

Small PE parts to fold. How do you work with such small folds?

cheers

Mike

Thats cool as makes me wana do something like that.
But then again modeling has that efect on me.
Hence the stash.

truley impressive,what is the pe and where did you get them please?

Very impressive. I'm going to have to try a 1/72nd scale kit.

Martin,

Looks really good so far. Placing the cig lighter next to the M8 gives all of us an excellent idea of just how small this vehicle is in 72nd scale and how difficult it must be to detail and work in such tight quarters.

Can you still see?

Keep up the good work and hoping to see your model when it's finished!

Thanks for the replies,

The PE set is from eduard and I´ve bought it online @ MOL plastic in the netherlands.

I´ve put the interieur in the primer







Structure on the turret







*Note I removed the 2 gaps next to the seats.

Finally an update:

The interior has been painted







Unfortunately there isn't much to see after the upperhull is on it





Uhmm those decals are a little bit big. So a extra paintjob will do the trick















Next up: the turret.

Hi Martin!

Wow! Really good job on the decals! Turned out great, I myself started thinking of how difficult it must had been to paint that big markings on the real vehicle.

Keep posting!

Well it's for 99% finished. Some small work has to be done.
But I'm already stratified.

Martin,

Excellent! Now you did it! I'll have to go out and get one. The weathering is just right. I hope that you keep building in this scale.

-Eddy

Thats quite impressive ther man all that work paid off ai.

Very nice indeed! Your build makes me want to break my kit out and build it!

Thanks for the inspirational images and build review.

cheers

Mike

Thanks for the kind words. I'm very pleased with the result myself . I think I'll do some more 1/72 stuff. But first the other things.

Martin

Great job, but where did you get the PE?

Thanks for you replie,

The PE is a set from Eduard and I got it from MOL plastics in Netherlands.
