Dear all
This is my project for the SF campaign.
It will be again a M1078 SF mother ship but this time with the Trumpeter donor kit.
I would like to thanks Dirk from Pro Art Model to give me the opportunity to pick up all the resin parts that i need for this build.

Enjoy
Cheers
Seb

Look forward to seeing this Seb, should be a bit less hassle than the vacform kit you used before? Still hoping someone does a proper conversion for the 'mothership'

good good Seb !!!!

Thanks a lot Guys for your support and comment
I will dedicated time on the cabin, and in this build you guys will decide much of it.
So let's vote
Two options for the seats:

So please vote.

Go with the Bushmaster seats.

I just picked up the Trumpeter kit yesterday and look forward to seeing your come together. I was planning on using mainly the straight kit this time. If you could share with me some of the good and bad points of the kit I would greatly appreciate it.

looking good mate! i want to do this conversion as well. I know AEF designs did a conversion, has any one seen this?

Hi,

I think M1078 SF vehicle is the one below. Am I right?

scroll down and you'll see that I made the master and then cast a bunch for my Bushie. Seb cast a pile of stuff for me so we traded seats for suspension.Since they were to be hidden inside the rear of the BM I didn't go too crazy with the details, since then I have seen better pictures of them so they could be improved.
I'm watching this thread, look like it could be some fun.

Here's the picture

Dear All
I am currently busy with cabling all the components of the frame, lights, brakes, hydraulics fuel line, airline and i am wondering if someone have pics of the frame but from beneath.

i need some details on the small connection boxes like the ones from the TM
See below:


Cheers
Seb

Looking forward to this one Seb!

Ok here is the update on the frame with the cabling.
I add cable for the rear lights, for the air.
I detailed the SRW with a cable pointing forward, I have some doubt regarding the detail. If someone have more intel please tell me.

The pics:

the light




the airline




The SRW


Rear brakes and line


Comments very welcome

And I am still looking for some pics of the frame.
Cheers
Seb

No comments what's a pity

Never mind ok I will start to work on the cabin.

Here is my com set I gonna use, please tell me if you like it or not, we can change the config based on your comments:

Sincgars 2 RT-1523E (ASIP) in a bottom of the bay 2 handset one normal antenna.
On top of this setup, I will add a PSC-5 with X-antenna and one handset.

Then the passenger with enjoy a FBCB2 setup plus gps between passenger and driver same setup seen on Humvee.

Do you like it??
More sincgars like a RT-1439/VRC or more Sat com like PRC-113 or PRC-117??

Waiting for comments
Cheers
Seb

Seb, personally I'm watching with admiration, annoyance and envy... since I can't build it yet!
Can't comment on accuracy as I know nuts about this beast.. But your work looks marvelous so far

Nice job Seb! I had not realised you had updated your blog!

WHat reference are you using? Any online sites?

Martyn

The TM is my only bible, check Tpub.com

Thanks for the comments
Seb

Almost done with the frame, waiting for my front brakes from Dirk

Cabling is done

Comments very welcome
No one on the FBCB2 set up for this truck ??













And the flat bed



Cheers
Seb

Hi Seb,
this looks very very good. Especially the cabling is amazing.

One question.. is that really the US earlier type receiver attached to the frame? I have never seen detailed pictures of this truck, so I am not arguing. I am just curious about the location.

I am looking forward to seeing the clutter job

Regards

Jiri

awesome work seb! really coming along nicely!

Awesome detail. Can't wait for the next update. I am in awe!
