I've finely finished my Fitter (Thanks to Sampo for the new set of decals ).
Painted with Humbroll, friull tracks and a new MG from dragon.
(It's a shame that I can't enter it in the bucket campaign
)
Hoop you like it

Jan Willem,
I have watched the previous wip with interest and have to say that you have completed an excellent build.
Its looks very purposeful and has just enough kit on it to make it look realistic, I like the subtle weathering, one question did you make the razor wire or is it from a commercial source?
I was wondering if you have progressed any further with the ACAV turret?

thanks,
I bought the razor wire (I think it's from verlinden).
As for the Acav turret it was going to go on a YPR 765 (the new version for the bucket campaign) but that didn't turn out as I had hoped so it is not going to be used after all (sorry for that if you want it back just say so and I'll send it back).

No you keep it Jan Willem, I was glad to help, just interested to see if your project had got going. You may use it in the future.
I have a pack of the verlinden wire, I must get it out but the time that I examined it I managed to get it stuck in my skin as it is really sharp.........ouch

I know the feeling they are really sharp but they look "cool".
It's one of those thing you buy and forget about (I had it in my stash for 1 and a half year).

That looks really good Jan! Its nicely detailed and very well painted. Will you be adding those figures?? I agree its a shame IDF subjects aremt allowed in the Bucket Bonanza, still im thinking of starting up an IDF vehicles campaing sometime later this year or next year.

FYI Nick,
before I forget the kit comes as a fitter for a Merkava/Magach unit, I added the m-113 bits from the sparebox (the spareparts carried by Fitters depends on in what kind of unit they are surfing) so you don't get it like I build it.

It looks amazing, great work. I was almost about to buy one of these when I spotted a Russian Sam-6.
