Thanks for pics.

MCTAGS turret looks amazing. I was thinking to buy several for humvee, cougar, MTVR at first and perhaps more.
Thank you very much to Live Resin to fill this gap.

However those MCTAGS sets are very expensive.

Concerning the CROWS 2, I prefer the Blast Models one with a M2 machine gun and it seems to be easier to built than this Live Resin item. And of course it is a french manufacturer !

Yes the Mctags turrets are not cheap but they are very good so i think it's a good price on it as they are so nice..so i recomend you to buy it

About the M-atv sets, they are very fine too, but i dont know if the turret hatch ring is designed for the panda model kit as it is a little to big on the roof if you compare to the picture on the box and the turret ring almost go outside of the roof on the back to the cargo... Maybe that part is designed for the kinetic kit as is that kit not a little bigger then the Panda kit?
Yes the Blast models kit are very nice too, i think i will use the turret hatch ring from blast models and the rest from live resin..

I didn't know about the size of the turret ring of the Live Resin set but I think you have a good idea to solve the problem.

I don't think the M-ATV sets were designed for any of the existing model kits. Live Resin usually does their sets in 1/1 and then shrinks them down to 1/35 scale. So, I would say Live Resin stuff is accurately sized, perhaps the problem could be inaccurate size of the turret opening in the M-ATV plastic kits...

Thanks for the info Mario, maybe the panda models is not correct in size then, but then the live resin hatch ring looks a little to big on the kit, so maybe Yaroslav can make one more then that is just a little smaller so it fit the panda models kit..
But the parts are very nice, so a very good job of live resin and his part is probably correct then and panda models kit a little to small...

I make a 3d scan of Kinetic M-ATV and work with this model. My model correct to Kinetic, but Panda usable as.

Yaroslav,
Kinetic M-ATV has serious dimensional errors (significantly too large in some dimensions), so be careful with it! Panda M-ATV is dimensionally correct, but the weapons station in it is too small...

Panda Models M-ATV is dimensionally accurate with the exception of weapons station and it's base ring, which are too small!

Kinetic M-ATV is significantly too large in some dimensions. If Yaroslav's design is scaled to match the Kinetic M-ATV (and not based on real 1:1 dimensions) then it may be overscale...

Thanks Yaroslav for the answer you have not consider to make a hatch ring for the Panda models kit too, as i think the panda models kit are more populair then the Kinetic kit..
can you maybe do the front mirrors also that are located in the front of the veichle as they are missing in the kits... Would be nice

Yaroslav, here you see the hatch ring on the panda models m-atv kit and you see the hatch ring is way to big, it would be sad if you could not do a new ring also for the panda models kit when the part is so nice done.. as it's almost 2 mm to big for the panda models roof... So think of it.. I'm not complaning just want to show you the photo..
