Hello Everyone
It has been sometime since i have posted here, but check in once every day. I have just completed a 1/35 AFV Guntruck with heaps of other detail sets, Eduard, Kirrin, and the Hobby Fan M55 trailer with Quad .50 cal.
It took a while to complete but for my liking turned out alright.

All coments welcome.





Thanks For Looking
Robert

Very nicely done.
One thing I would change in the future is to fill in those knock out circles on the back side of the armor. Lots of guys use putty. I like CA because you can fill them, hit them with accelerator, and sand them smooth in about 30 seconds.

Good work Robert, except for the knockout marks.

How did you make the tarps and covers?

Darryl, Thanks for looking.
It was fun to build but it was also good to finally get it off workbench and into display cabnant. It just seem to drag on but overall it was a enjoyable build with no kit issues.
Thanks
Robert

I think you did an excellant job! I really like all of the accessories inside of the vehicle, nice touch. As for the knockout/sinkholes or what ever you choose to call them, they are easy to overlook, I didn't notice the ones on the Blitz's tail gate until it was finished and I've been building for over 35 years - $_it happens, what can you say.

NIce Job,
razorboy
