This is a Cougar from us....not the same 3 tones pattern....just to have an idea....

Guido, What an outstanding build. Your scratch building and level of detailing is just so far above anything I could ever hope to achieve.

Joel

Thank you so much, Joel. You have just to try and try again........
Thank you once again.

Ciao Guido !

I saw these pics. The brown is a bit diferent of those used by Germany or US.

BTW, I sended an e-mail to EI asking about pics or informations on Buffalo painted in 3 tones camo.

Grazie !

Marco

Hi, Marco. Don't think it's different.....maybe the sunlight exposition. BTW I'm curious to know.
Take care.

Hi!

Let's wait. I hope the Esercito Italiano send me an answer about this.

I really don't know if the brown is different (looks like), but the Cougar i beautiful in any way.

Cheers !

Marco

Damn it is a good work - watching with a great interest!

Thank you so much, Pavel

Stunning work!

Hi Guido,

a quick remark about the Rhino device. I saw a Rhino on this years Grafenwöhr Volksfest. In fakt the frame is made of wood with sheet metal access doors. So you may do chipped wood instead of rusty metal.

OK Hans, thanks a lot. I'll try to do that correction.
Cheers.

Hi mates...slowly the beast has been dressed with its slats. I added first 14 slats' sections. It actually misses those on rear lateral, rear and front sides and are 10 more. I was obliged to modify some of them to adapt on the MEAP side armors. I also detailed the brackets that fix them together: not the real thing but better than the original PE part. And also added some random PE washers from Scale Hardware range: don't know the aim of these stuff on the real Buffalo.....but I got them on mine.
Thanks for watching.

The original Lion roar PE brackets....



.....and mine: don't know but I think there are 60, more or less



Scale Hardware washers



what I liked to represent



and what I did on the model



I used two washers to make each one of that....don't know how to call.

And how I fixed my first 14 slats



















That's all folks. Stay tuned

Wow, this is a whole new level. How do You find the patience to do that? My head is about to explode just by looking at it.

wooow what a great model you put there great job
henk

I'm actually on my knees trying to recompose the parts of mine, spread on the floor

Great works, nothing to say more

Thank you so much, Pascal

Oh boy, oh boy... Guido, this is a masterpiece. You must have nerves of steel; that slat fence looks great but it must have been a horror to assemble.

You are a master!



Mario

Funny claps Thank you so much, Mario.

Briliant result on the bar armor Guido.
Now your next challenge should be an accurate RPG-net for the Heller VBCI

Thank you Olivier.
I was instead thinking about a M-ATV net :-)

Bravo, Signore

When I do my thing, I call it hobby, But when a Thing comes out like yours, it's art.

The Crows looks great! 2 things to my eyes First, I've never seen they leave the bipod on the m240b when it mounts on the crows2(may be sometime). Second, the feeder looks too big for the 240B, the blast and the bronco one are both for the M2.

Pictures were screen shot from Google.





After all. it doesn't matter. It is a great model.

Regards

Jay

The level of detail is amazing. I find my self looking at your build every time I visit the forum.

Mark

"AHHHHH" Stunning man!

Thanks mates, everyone of you. I'm really happy you appreciate this beast.
Jay, thank you so much for your advice. I can only tell you the idea for the bipod comes out from one or two pics I saw on a Tankograd issue about USA MRAP, I'm consulting for this building: I decided to scratch the MEAP thanks to those pics. And the bipod is there on the CROWS. About the feeder you're right, but I had only that and I used.
Thank you once again.
Cheers.
