Absolutely perfect! Outstanding build!
What model did you use for basic? Tamiya or Academy.
Some years ago I had made a Canadian M577 with interior. The Academy M113A1 I had used for the basis model and the upper structure from Tamiya was used!
How can I add the model pictures of my Canadian M577.
As I found out; - itisn't possible with this posting!!!
Any help for posting my pictures is appreciated!
Best regard
