This looks really great, Sean! A tedious build, by any means!

Thanks Gents!
Some slow progress on washing & weathering
Now just to add all the gear, mirrors, more stowage, aerials, some packs, tow-bar, a few crates, spare wheel, some boxes and we’re done…. until the chains arrive. Still not even dispatched

Hi guys!
Long time away... Sorry about it. My Boxer is done but I've had problems with my camera. I'll post some pics ASAP.
Matthew, fantastic effects on BTR, I loved the rust.
Sean, I'm still impressed with your patience to build this SMP.
Jiri, I'll buy one of this beast. So I'll follow your build for sure.
Karl, nice choice!
Cheers!
Marco

Yes, Thomas. It is a beautiful kit. I build it a couple of years ago and it is a breeze to build.
Looking forward to see your color scheme.

Thanks, Christian, I’ve been meaning to say how great your ASLAV looks.
Thanks, Tom, your Puma kit looks like a real a gem.
I think we all agree eight wheels have got to be better than four!
Cheers

Well, building my Bradley for the 20 Bucks Campaign has reminded me how much I enjoy building armour, and how much easier it is that building aircraft
So I saw this campaign, remembered that I had the Trumpeter Centauro in the stash, and that it is the best looking AFV of all time (IMO of course )
So here it is. I've already started and am well on the way with the suspension. Does anyone know of any resin replacements for the rubber tyres? I tried all the main UK modelling shops last night and couldn't find any...

1/35 Cyber-Hobby (Dragon Aka Revell) BRDM-2/3 kit all done. Cammo scheme This is the link to where I got the camo scheme from. I took some creative license but I think she turned out pretty good. First one I completed in 9 years. Got a few more in the chute. I hope you all enjoy.

Cool work, Dan! A orove that heavy weathering is not a must to achieve a great looking model.
