Wow Milo, coming together nicely!
Super job on the weathering and the details so far.
This is definitely a center piece.

Great stuff! A friend of mine is going over with C-IED this fall, and is going to bring me back photos of his Buffalo. After seeing this one built up, i have to try building one too! Excellent work Miro!

It's not a crane....it is a remote control manipulator arm....and I am not totally sure that HIAB produced it. I think it may have been developed by the vehicle producer....Force Protection Inc.

Seb,
I think that model is nice with many errors, but this have many resin models.
Big problem is bad wheels.
I can recommended this model but rating in review I can add max. 85%.

Nice work Milo,
You really captured the look with the weathering.
When you get it finished can you send me some 15-20 pics for an On Display Feature.

Milo you perfectly caught the look of the beast. It"s a great build and paint job, indeed.
It's a pity it's so an expensive kit
because I'd like to have one in my stash.

Outstanding work, not much more needs to be said!!!
I enjoyed watching the transformation from bare resin to finished piece of art.
Excellent work and it needs to be published in magazines.
Regards, Ed

Outstanding work on the Buffalo....what a monster of a vehicle.
Great to see you added the little details....like the cables for the spare tire winch.
Great way to start the weekend.

Hi All,
Model is ready without rear door and mirror. Door is very curving. For that I must all door rebuild.
Mirror I wait from Echelon.
