Ooh-rah! as an former Marine, I love any Pacific Theatre Armor/Vehicles!
Love that paint, what is that color?

looks great Bob, any jarhead would be proud to go for a ride in it. I didn't spot any gouges that looked out of place, I don't think you'll have a hard time satisfying your own critique.
I'm really looking forward to the dio!

Thanks again guys for the kind words.
Mark, I'm with you on the USMC vehicles, not enough room to place more weapons.
The color is Tamiya Khaki just darkened a little so that it might match a faded Marine Corps green.
Chris I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to do that one. I'm leaning towards individual dios that would fit together to make a master. Just not sure yet.
I really appreciate everyone taking the time to make a comment,
Thanks again,
Bob

Haha, agreed Bob, why have 2 Machine Guns, when you can have 3 (or more)! Ooh-Rah!
Thanks for the info on the paint, you nailed it! I will remember that combo for future use.
Thanks and Semper Fi!
