It's been a long time since I posted something finished, I have not doing much modelling but I managed to finished this vehicle and I wanted to share it.
The kit was built to represent a Chilean Mowag Piraña 6x6 APC belonging to the Chilean Battalion in Haiti this year. I was deployed as part of the peacekeeping mission in that country and this was one of the vehicles I was in charge, after a long range recce mission, hence the heavy dry mud of the weathering. Actually, the model was built while I was deployed.
I used the Canadian Grizzly from Trumpeter and I did some mods to bring it to the vehicle used by the Chilean forces, some of them are the rear upper hull hatch, 2 extra periscopes and rifle hatches on the sides and some smaller details. Was painted with Testors Enamels, Tamiya and Vallejo acylics and weathered with MIG pigments and artist oils.
