Hi all.

This is other of my three kits that I have been sold particularly. It was used by the Spanish Army during the mining riots in Asturias. It is one of the first protected trucks and it was based over a Nash Quad chassis. I know only a picture about this truck but it is very interesting for its peculiar CAMO.

Thanks Val.

Finally, I have received the decals from Black Lion. Now the model is ready to the weathering.


Best regards.

Pedro, I was wondering if this was the same Nash company that made automobiles in North America?

Pedro,
Great work on an interesting and unusual subject. I don't imagine the crewmen much enjoyed the ride in this truck. At least the miners' rebellion was in the fall and not summer!
Like a lot of us, I find improvized armored vehicles interesting.

Thanks for your reply Pedro, that is very cool. And the weathering looks excellent! For some reason I feel like this would look good near a 1/72 A7V, I guess the shapes and camouflage patterns are similar enough that they would compliment each other in a display case/shelf.
