@Jeff
No problem, any country, any marking, a gift.
@Sal
Another change, no problem Sal on the 11th we will be here !!
But I have to agree with Jeff, despite carrying soldiers, it's an armoured railcar...
not an APC/AFV
@Brian
jump in, no problem !

Speaking of the 'rules', the "Any country, any markings"... so it doesn't have to historically correct, it could be a special gift to a country with their markings?

Thanks John! Don't worry, I have drool guard. (works great)
Anyway, I may not create masterpieces (for which comes most of the drooling) but at least I recognize a modelers effort.
Especially if I'm the Campaign Leader.

Your 44 or 45 yourself, right? When it comes to modeling, i feel like a kid again.
Gary
Well, to be perfectly honest, to divulge or not to divulge.
I have so many things wrong with my health right now AND with an upcoming surgery date in August to correct a thyroid issue... it would make you grateful for all of what you have.
Modeling is an escape for me, and I hope John doesn't mind me going a bit off topic

Gary and Jeff, you bunch of old farts,I don't feel so bad now
I'm 35 and my oldest starts school in 3 weeks, in fact we just got back today from updating his shots.
Can't wait to start building, not only do I a VAB 4x4 to build, but also have an accurate armour M114. Also waiting for my Y-modelle Dingo 2 to arrive in the mail. So many choices to make
