Hi all campaigners,
I've completed the building at 95%. The remaining parts will be set after painting (running gear mainly). Of course, there will be some stowage all over the hull and the turret.

I didn't installed the workplatform and thus modified the pioneer tools arrangement and had to correct the left skirt. The last roadwheel shock absorber and the idler adjuster are not fully detailed as most of them will be concealed under the wheels. (I know I'm a bit lazy !)





More pics in the campaign gallery as usual.
I'll paint it as a KFOR vehicle from the 1-26 Infantry Bn. This will be a bit fictitious but looking at the Concord book it will be close to reality if not fully accurate.

Looking good, Olivier!
I'm really looking forward to see this one painted up. Keep us posted. BTW, it seems like you'r going to beat Pete in finishing the Bradley, or...? :-)

Cheers
Erik

Very impressive work. You are the man my friend

Do you think you have done enough to give it more detail? :-) Just kidding mate.

Fantatic job!

With regards to the pioneer tools though, are they a permanent fixture already or are you painting it seperately before cementing it on?

Looks lik eit is coming along awesome. Can't wait to see it completed. Great job on the details.

Fantastic job, congrats....looking forward to see it finished

cheers

Hi all and thank you for the kind comments.

Jazza : the tools are cemented but this is not a real problem to paint them this way thanks to the NATO camo

and yes, I missed some obvious details :-) But I think it is enough or this one could drive me mad. Each time I look at references pcitures I find a new piece of rod, a bolt or something like that. For example, on the left of the driver there is a plate molded solid by Tamiya whereas it is bolted on little spacers. This is the part with the left post (wire-cutter ?).
I'm still wondering whether or not I represent the large rubber flaps over the front skirt piece ?

Amazing detailing Olivier especially on the TOW launcher , great work

Olivier,

That looks quite impressive. I have a project starting soon of the same subject. Do you have a list of the improvements you have made?

Thanks,

joe.

Hi Joe,
first welcome at big A (for your first post).
I haven't a list yet but intend to write a feature article with Epi and his own Uparmored Bradley. It could show up in the next couple of weeks. Anyway, I could PM you a quick list if you want.

Thanks Olivier,

I will wait for the article. Again, a very nice build.
