Hello to all M113 fans

am in the process to achieve one of the M113 and M577 versions used by SWAT or county Police and particularly this one from Calhoun county .
Is there some one having a rear pic to check if there are some markings applied on that area ??

Thsi is some pic about my model ( apologise pic quality !!) http://gallery.kitmaker.net/showgallery.php?cat=27309&catp=turrimop

Many thanks for any help on this

Here is the rear of one of their similarly marked M113. The M577 should be the same.

Thanks Gino

Yes I had these pics !!And decals for this version are also printed
But who nows Ha ha
I will wait a while before to apply same markings( this remember me when doing 1/43 racing car Le mans ... so many sister cars where slightly differents)

About this version ; do you think it's painted in desert yellow
Am in the process too to paint her in TS46 Tamiya ???

It is a sandy color, no telling what the exact color is. Your pick will probably be close enough.

Thanks Gino for this info
I have been on your site watching your models ...Bravo "i take off my hat " !!!!
you probably are one of most active member here ... have read so much of your post and info ; congratulations !!

If one day you need some of these decals let me konw ??

Merci bien

Thanks for the compliments. I may take you up on the decals at some point. Keep up the good work.

I'd take a decal sheet if it covered several vehicles & counties with some extra badges etc

Planning a V-100, M-113, NASA M-113 "Thunderbirds" (capsule rescue).

Need 1/35th Police light-bar too

Achieved some more versions M113 police using the decls i ordered recently

M113 desert yellow have the specific "Soucy "rubber tracks !!

couldn't enter that gallery -- requires a **password** so I guess it's really, really Top Secret & National Security sensitive

I do like your M-557, Mic113. Is there a list of Police decals in 1/32nd or 1/24th that actually fit 1/35th kits ?? Most look to be too big.

I can recommend the MBI publicatins book "Special Police Vehicles" by Larry Shapiro. It has a few good photos of armour in Dark-Blue as well as the usual trucks & operations-busses.

Greetings,

I'm also a big fan of the Police versions of the venerable M113. Where did you get hold of the decals for the vehicles? Is it commercially avilable and if so from whom? I wouldn't mind giving a couple of those a crack myself. Keep up the excellent work.
