I never build modern armor, and this kit was a gift from the father in law (and only other modeler I know, so that's a +) but here it is:
Trumpeter 1/35 LAV-III
tow cable broke from fooling with it and continued to fray, i CA'd it a little after the fray and wrapped it around some of the LAV for "later use"
the ration packs, and cases of coke etc are a nice touch to the kit and easy to assemble!
added a few antennas, never really tried this before
How does it look? I know there may be a couple seems here an there, and the odd fold in the PE not too great but I tried to use this kit to practice up and will practice some paint techniques on it as well.
Thanks for stopping by!
Happy modeling!
