That's the style Ma Deuce I ordered, but a different M134 kit. Really looking forward to getting my hands on these. Email says they have been shipped.

Yaroslav,
Once again. Thanks. I know you have A LOT of people excited by the products you create and a lot of people wanting you to create things so I really do appreciate the time you take to listen and your willingness to consider them for a future release.
One other question regarding the gunner turret you mentioned you had planned for release this summer.
Live-Resin Gunner Turret
Will it work on the 1/35 M-ATV Panda Kit? I thought I read that it would work on the M-ATV but can't seem to locate it.
M-ATV Pics:
M-ATV Special Force Model w/Common Remotely Operated Weapon System(CROWS)

Also, here are pics of the Academy Blackhawk kit I'm planning on adding your weapons to.
Academy AH-60L (should be MH-60L) DAP Blackhawk
Thanks again! Looking forward to the summer release! Take care.

Hi Pete, you are very welcome. these sets are just too good not to share!.
Al LaFleche, the both the M2 and M134 are superb indeed. I took a run at the M2, took about 30 minutes to cut off the blocks and clean up then another 30 minutes to build up. Mind you I cracked the armoured shield, was just a little heavy handed and inpatient!
Well, here are a few pictures of the M2 built up....

Wow, that looks amazingly detailed and really 3D! Some 1/35 kits have a tendency to look "flat" but with so many pieces on that M2, things really pop out for sure! Yaroslav is really on a roll with all his new releases! What a hit!
Thanks for sharing, Chris! Really an amazing job you did cleaning up and assembling the M2 kit!

Pete,thanks for the compliment, very much apprecieated, but clean up with these sets is minimal to say the least..side cutters mostly.

Jay, thank you also. 'a whole day'...not at all, these sets are so well engineered and designed...although the instructions do need to be studied well, and also the pictures on the boxes referenced to get a good handle on what to do. The M134 will have to wait till tomorrow, bed time for me I am afraid !, but I fear the M134 will be a little more complicated than the M2.

well, here is the M134. considerably more 'fiddly' than the M2, and I lost a bit to the carpet monster, but easily replaced with some plastic rod. One difference with this set compared to the M2, is that the DCL401 Dot Sight and Surefire HellFighter weapon light do not come with the set, but are from their heavy weapons accessory set. The parts have had a coat of Tamiya primer.
There is one thing I would like to know, if anyone knows is how are the weapon lights controlled?, is there a cable running back to the hand-grips?

Wow, incredible gatling gun! The Picatinny Rail looks great and the flexible ammo chute's curves are nice to see---didn't know resin could be molded in such a curved bent fashion. Great job building it and thanks for sharing!

Hi Pete, the section of the feed shute that comes out of the bottom of the assembly is actually moulded that way ('S' shaped), and the other sections come staright. I gently heated the straight sections to soften and then bend, holding in place untill cooled.

Hi Henk, the set comes with two options for the barell, the one shown here, which is cast as one with the barells and flash hider. The second option is more detailed and is two part with separate barell assembly and flash hider, so if looking head on you see right down to the individual barrels.
Unfortunately in my haste, I cut the flash hider to close to the openings which run up the sides and broke it. It is very, very brittle. Next time I will use a fine razor saw.

Surefire makes a helluva bike headlight too. I have Yaroslav's Hellfighter set, and I have to say it looks spot on. There's nothing like having the real thing in your garage to compare it to. Henk, this one is for you.

I like this one you posted much better than the one Jesse "I'm named after a gunfighter" James built. I believe it uses the same Twisted Chopper tank I used, except on this one the two halves are welded together, whereas I kept mine in two halves and mounted it through the holes you see on the tank.
By the way, my next build is based on a P-51 Mustang, with actual parts from one.
