It seems to be a nice kit. Zvezda has just released their own kit of this vehicle.

There is also a kit from X Act Scale Models.

I admire your capacity to build and paint models with just one hand. And they are very well made.

You're doing nice work on this kit so far.. I also like the Lince you're working on.. What is your opinion of the HobbyBoss VBL? Does it go together well?

Looking forward to seeing all three finished

Hello

Yesterday, I sticked the decals for the interior camo, it's Cartograph decals, and the works well done.

at first,





And the body



After I try to paint the exterior camo, I used gunze paint far the green (h420) and the black (h12) for the sand I use a Prince August Air paint (it's Vallejo paint) but I didn't remember his number.







With the wheels





So, this work needs to be refined. But
I'm happy with my work

@ Hisham : Thanks, The VBL is a good kit but with big errors. HB mix differents version of VBL (short, long, Milan).
the wheel arches at the front are, it seems, very wrong.

Last year to Hyères Maquette Expo in France 3 peoples from the Caire showed their works, I don't remember what is their club... maybe you know them.

Bye

Yes, Gaël, they are good friends.. one of them is Hussein and is a member here on Armorama, his user name is (helkaissy).. you can see his latest Yum Kippur war diorama in the Diorama forum.

They have a FB page for their club.. Egyptian Scale Modelling Club - IPMS Egypt

Good job on the cammo, by the way... looking forward to seeing all three vehicles finished

Thank you for your comment
The interior is a decal, thankfully. The exterior is paint, Prince August Air, I did not get to have the right dilution to avoid having small projections on the previous shade.
And yes everything is done with one hand.

I will add photos because looking at real photos in Crimea and Ukraine, there is always the help wheel and roof hatch ... More details added.

Good evening

Here are some pictures of the gear more dirty than before.











That's it, I'm not touching it anymore.
