Wow. An impressively large machine. Very nice paint job although a bit too clean for my taste. Is it out of the box or did you add enhancements?

What a great looking kit! I was on a German military base and saw a Transporter like this, and it was Clean.

Thanks for your kind comments.
As my current low level of weathering skill, I've tried not to over done to the kit and damage it like I've done to the Boxer. I'm still learning and practising my skills.

I really like that Boxer!!! Great job with the Faun. Only one minor detail. The crossthing in the back (the night convoy identification) is wrong. It should have hte X over hte white cross (curently you've got a cross over another cross, a you have it on the Boxer.

Don't panic. I made the same mistake once. I had superglued the part. I carefully took it appart with and Xacto knife and reglued it in the correct position. You can also leave it that way.. it's just a inor detail. Cheers!

Thanks for your kind comment. I've thought of paint over the outside X, to form the white + inside, and then repaint the outside X, I'll post my result as soon as possible.
Thank you, Roy.
