This is filled up with putty, because I needed to attach PE front plate from Voyager set(red circle in the picture).

Hi guys, little update. More paint job then building. Chassis is painted, but needs gloss varnish then comes weathering.




Weathering is done with hood, wheels and canisters, just need to apply matt varnish.

Very nice paintjob and build so far I have 3 in my to do stash what color of the vallejo paint are you using is it always the dark to light sand color or is it the opposite with the Vallejo paints.

How many of these M1151 are out on patrol at any one point in a single patrol and did any of the special ops operators use any of these.

Happy modeling

Great paintjob I like it very much, except weathering of jerry cans. In original they're made with plastic, so such chipping doesn't match here...

William I use Vallejo 71.075 Sand.It is great color and easy to spray on, but I would recommend to use their airbrush thinner 71.261 to dilute it. Kuba, yes you are right about canisters(I didn't know they are plastic at the time when I was painting them) but that is easy to repaint

Marko,

I know it' been a long time this post has not been updated but I would love to see the photos you have of the model. I don't see them here so I just wanted to see if you still have the photos to post or has it been completed.
