Excellent work Miloslav, I'm working on a 4th myself and hope to do your recon vehicle after the new year. I do have to say that the slat armor is kicking my butt

How many sets of slats do you go threw to get one perfect looking set of armor slats...just breathing hard will bend the pieces.
Waiting to see more progress,
Joe
It feels like bible camp…Only I’m not crying pretending I’m somewhere else.
Happy Modeling

Thanks Joe,
I don`t Have problem with slat because I strictly build according to Eduard instruction. Side parts I glue together. I thinks that you must have small patience. Firs parts is slow but next parts is quickly. I think that Stryker with slat is very nice model after small patience and hard working.

I love the turret hatch armor, is there ballistic glass going in? Fantastic as usual. You could write the book on working with PE and Cyanoacrylate adheasives.
Can't wait to see the LAV!!!!!!

Hello Miloslav. Although Im not a modern armor fan, these stykers do look so cool.
Your build, considering its a conversion and loads of PE is so clean. Amazing work. The only fault I can ever find in your modelling ... is the lack of figures!!

One of the serious problems in planning against Canadian doctrine is that the Canadians do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligations to follow their doctrine.

Very nice work....interesting to see the support brackets of the slat armour mounted without the slat armour that will be added.....it looks very "skeletal" .....keep up the excellent work.
