Came back from AMPS 2012 show, really really Shock me, so many fantastic works. they are masters!!! That encourage me keep challenging myself make improvement.

I finished this S 300 radar truck project on Jan, that model brought me couple trophies and best armour award from local model contest. Tomorrow never die, modelling never end~~!





Well, now is the time to do the s 300 launcher truck. plan to spend 3 month on this project, and even more challenged details. PST kid + lots lots of scratch built.

I will share the proses pictures during the work. and look forward to hear all the comments from everyone. Thank you and wish me good luck~~

I remember this one from the AMPS sow, it really was very well done. I thought it should be part of the theme "Flack & Ack Ack"!

It has been a while. Just made a little progress.

I found some valuable photos to help me make this vehicle.
According to these photos, I started my project, first I polished all the original hatches and rebuilt it to enhance the detail.

This time i put the cockpit door hollow, and will make cab interior structures , really a painful when i doing the cutting.

SO far only did this command module, not finish yet.










Use rivet maker to enhance the detail, almost scratch built everything.

Fantastic SB there njtp80! This is definetly one build I will be watching. I had this kit but thought it would be too much to do well so I got rid of it. Now after looking at what you've done so far, I'm glad I sold it! Keep up the awesome work as the launcher/radar systems will look amazing together!

Incredible work, especially considering that this is based on a PST kit. They are not my favorite kits to say the least, but they have a nice selection of very interesting vehicles.

Actually, probably a little late for this...but if you made doubles of all your scratchbuilds, there are resin companies who will buy the masters and cast them as kits, paying you for the "aftermarket enhancement kit" you made and sold to them.
