Just out of interest - are you adding the rest of the internal roof frame to the Live Resin unit?

Also - not sure if it's fitted to later vehicles, but the earlier GMVs often had an air-con unit mounted under the roof (kerbside, over the rear seat).

Hi, John

Thank you.

I have the legend dumvee Kit, hopefully they will all fit.
I don't really have the m1113 with SAG turret interior picture, can't tell the configuration, later I might have to use my imagination

Jay - I like very much what You're doing here With all this Live Resin goodies it will be a great model. Keep on going!
Personally I would't attach this seat in the turret. If there is something there, I don't think it's an old type Humvee seat.

It's not an airco unit, it's a power inverter, I guess. And sometimes at the other side there is a BFT CPU mounted. Take a look at this walkaround:

the front windshield is acctualy pretty easy:

(Heat the part to bend it)

the part around it is the thinnest evergreen sheet
you have to be very carefull while cutting this, the bend it the tricky part.

(measure twice, Cut once!!)


(make the window itself from the clear piece that is in legends conv.)



the doors are more difficult,can't realy explain how i did it. i beleive 'live resin' also will release them.

Hi, Brent!!!

Thanks, just let me know if you need any live resin parts.

Have a question for you, what are the major upgrades from m998(1025) to M1113?

The most visible changes are:
- bigger front grill (for extended radiator),
- front winch in standard,
- rear bumper in standard,
- changed rear area of the frame (inner bumper supports added),
- different inner engine cover,
- different cover of air channel (over the engine cover);
- long exhaust silnecer divided into short silencer and catalytic converter.
Also of course new style wheels, seats and mirrors.

Keep on doing Your great work!

Great work Jay !

One question: I see that you used a Tamiya kit (M1025 or M1046) as the base for the model, but from which kit is the front grill ?
