Not too bad. Pretty good job on the chipped paint. The gear is all wrong though. You have US bags and MRE boxes all over it. British ration boxes are very different and available from Hudson and Allen, I think. Also, the gear on th left side is way off colorwise, man are they bright. Don't know about the screens in front of the TC and gunner's sights either, or the plate added across the front glacis to hold gear on. Lastly, OIF would not be written over the flags. The Brits call it Op Telic, not OIF.

In Russia almost there is no underweight and other aftermarket to British armor therefore it took that it was, separately it did not go into the materiel, attempted to more test the new methods of post-scoring and photographs not much this machine.

I have. I converted it into a Company Command Vehicle using the Accurate Armour set. The color is a yellow-sand. I used Testors Model Master Sand with a few drops of yellow added. I built it for a customer who was a British Offcier in Op Telic, it was his vehicle. He said the color was spot on.



You can see more of it here.

Thanks. I think you mean it is very clean and not chipped. Thats how his vehicle looked. He gave me some pictures and it was pretty freshly painted looking. Thats how he wanted it anyways. I mounted it on a base for him as well. You can see it on the base at my Showcase (PhotoBucket) link below. I can't access those pics from a gov't computer (damn firewall). There is a pic of his vehicle there for comparison as well.

You can see the British ration boxes in the turret basket as well for comparison. They are quite a bit longer and different looking.


Good luck on yours James. The AA interior looks nice. I had done one a while ago (read about 10-12 years ago) from ODS ('90-'91) with a scratch interior. The AA set wasn't even thought about then. Maybe I'll do another with the interior in the future.
