Nice work Hermann. Even with the red lifebelt though it still looks very monotone. Is there any stowage or anything you can add to add a bit more colour.
I always fancied buildiong one of these-how does it go together

It was a clean and easy build (same can be said of most of Tamyia's products). I enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback!!

Nice built! all it needs is to slide it into the Mekong and a few VCs. Maybe you can add some loads like duffel bags and beer cans heh heh.

Nice build, Hermann--I like the subtle weathering. Makes it look used but not abused. I would suggest, however, that you repaint the weapons in a much darker metallic color, as they are too bright. You may want to try Model Master Metalizer Gunmetal, or you can paint them flat black and then apply a very, very light drybrushing of Testors Steel (or graphite from a ground up pencil lead). It'll give the guns that blued steel look.
