Hi

My new works is the last Italeri product, the Lince.

thr box art



I think I build a spanish version in Afga like the picture



Start by assembling the chassis, has nothing to say assembles very well ...









For fun, the ventral shield.



floor



the cabin



and the cargo



With the suspension in place, still good. Some blunders, I found the quality of plastic that I know with their helicopters, it is a brittle hair ...





Following assembly, with the end of painting the chassis, the cabin and cargo area.
Mounting of rollbars and painting of the dashboard and seats.









It always assembles as well. It's fun!

See you.

Nice progress so far! I'll be following this, too.

This is looking great.For the idea of doing a Spanish version in Afghanistan sounds very interesting.I will also be following,am planing on picking one up in the next few months.

Can't wait to see the finished model.

There is a very nice book about the LMV Iveco



There are very few pics of spanish vehicles in Afghanistan.

There are also pics of italian and belgian vehicles.

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
My second Lince will be an Italian... I don't the Belgium used it.
Bye

Good evening everyone

Today I continued painting the interior of the unit to ask the seats.

No traps if not think to paint all sides of the coins, sometimes face down, is not as much as what is believed ...





I still have a seat and a half to finish by asking them the safety belts pictured cutting ... a nightmare to ask that we have a hand, and left more ... (In France when someone is clumsy, often said that he has two left hands)

I took the opportunity to paint the body in olive drab, with a Tamiya and one of Gunze ... I think the Gunze is closer to the photo I posted early. What do you think?











Appointment tomorrow to be the new ...

Gaël

Hello everybody's

So, After glue the PE safety belts, I painted scuffing on the floor in the cargo area This works will not very visible...

The weathering will make.









Have a good day.

Gaël

I can't comment on the color as I am color blind.

Parts seem to fit well.

I have one kit in my stash, I've just ordered DEF Model wheels for it.

It's not cool for modelling, or for the chimical experience...

The resin's wheels... a wish, I have not been reasonable with the "Maquette Char Promo" soldes... my budget is out !
Horrible !

Great!!! Congratulations

This is mine in Spanish colors

Thanks
Do you remember wath green used?
Gaël

Gaël, I used Vallejo 70.980 Black Green. This is the correct color for "Guardia Civil" but for Spanish army is Olive Drab.
I did communication radios in scratch. If you want, I can sent to you.
Congratulations

Thanks !
I didn't build a Guardia Civil" version, I prefer the spanish army. Ok for the radios maps, my mail is in my profile.

Hello everyone,

And then after a little break I took over the assembly of this kit.

Basically I was there.



I attacked the outside.







I changed my tune, I will do it under the decor of the Guardia Civil ... As in this photo.

Gaël

Good progress. Finally, you use resin wheels.

Hello everyone,

@ Alex: Yes the resin wheels really bring a plus to the kit.

First airbrush shot with the specific green of the Guardia Civil ...









Then start crushing,







Then after letting the products dry, I pulled the different shades with white spirit.







and with the bull bar.



Go to the next.

Gaël

your build is realy looking good nice paint .

Bonsoir

And now, this little kit is finished. I had fun painting it and dirtying it.
I will try to make a base with material, no character because I did not find staff of the "Guardia Civil" modern.

See you.
