Hi Huypham. Welcome to Armorama. I like your user name.

Your model is very nice. I especially like the first photo. The weathering looks great, and the LRAS lens came out great.

A couple of notes:
The rear can holders are for water and fuel cans. I have not seen them used for anything else. But one never knows I suppose. I would at least use straps for the cans on the left side, like you did for the boxes on the right side. The right front wheel ring is missing, although these can come off in real life.

The hollow back of the pack on the right is showing. You might want to reposition it. Also, the exhaust deflector should be a gunmetal color instead of the vehicle green. And I suggest having at least the end of the tow cable showing near the drum since this is where it is placed when not fully extended out to the front of the vehicle.

Here is a new vehicle with tape still wrapped around the cable end. With an operational vehicle the cable would merely hang down instead of being secured to the side.


But what I point out is minor. The model is very nice.

Bob

Thanks Bob
I will use this advise to improve these cars

Great Stryker.... really well done!

What version is a "1407"?

Stryker version is not, it's my birthday

like Bob said the Recovery cable is minor where it attaches outside of theater it is unit SOP. For those in theater, look at Bobs Avatar and you can see where it feeds through the cage.

the only other thing, the SBCT's didnt have Alice equipment, they received MOLLE in 1998/99 and they didnt drive around with the camoflauge support systems on them. Most of the camo net systems never went over or did so in a connex.

But what the 2d Dragoons does recently i dont know.

thats one hell of a model, i wish you had done a build blog on it. i would have loved to see your techniques

there are some pix of my build progress
with some replace and added details
-wire system:copper wire 0.2mm



-turret:Styrene use plates 0.3mm and round bars 0.3,0.5mm
