I agree, this really does look good.
What's the base kit & how did you do the camouflage net?
I'll be watching this one!

Hello chaps thank you for taking time to look in on my build.the base kit is the hobbyboss land rover with the black dog snatch land rover conversion.the black dog conversion is a pig of a conversion to use.
The GPR,ground penetrating radar is scratch built along with all the cameras and antenna. The barracuda system is a layer of green putty with photo etch cam net.this is made the same as the original on the vehicle.
I'll post some pics of the build if you like.
Terry.

Either side of the body fans which supply the cooling system are located.black dog provide screens to cover these however no internal detail.
So a couple of scratch fans.

your eye for detail is great, the scratch building is what makes the model stand out, do you have a web site that i can look at some more of your work, i have just ordered the bullalo 6x6 mpcv and i will be getting the land rover to go with it. keep up the great work.
