Hello again
My latest finished model, Stryker Mobile Gun System.
Another futuristic looking vechicle after Merkava MK.IV im my collection. AFV Club's kit is excellent, everything is perfectly matched, easy to build in one day, I was able to focus on painting and weathering.
Packages are from Tamyia kit (Modern U.S. Military Equipmnet Set)
Enjoy:
I hope you like it.
After this model Stryker became one of my favourite vechicle, now I have in my workshop another Stryker, TACP version with slat armor:
Bye

Excellent build. The only issue is the ALICE packs; those are no longer in use, and concerning those, large rucks were only solid green, while the medium packs were available in woodland camo.

Yes, I know it, this is a problem, but it hard to find another type, even in the Legend's Stryker Stowage Set (which I planning to by to my new Stryker) are ALICE packs...
Thanks for suggestions with painting.

Real Model has a stowage set for Strykers (just be sure its set # 2) which includes molle packs, you can take a look on their site for future projects....
Great build, and excellent painting and weathering!!!

Thanks for the good words!

The only problem I see is the ballistic cover for the gunners sight. It actually folds down, not up. Might be an issue with the instructions.

Absolutely gorgeous, far beyond my skills. One thing - I think you're missing the little hinged boxes that go on the rear corners of the rear sponsons behind the rearmost wheels. As far as I know, they cover the fuel caps and have small handles to open and close them. A small nit in a gorgeous model.

MGS has a crew of three maybe you should only put three rucks on it just saying. Overall awesome
