Miloslav,
Not an expert on Bradleys but that looks a very nice build, nice weathering and with the maps/magazines on the turret looks nice.
Just think there may be to many magazines.

Simply AWESOME! Yuo captured the Bradley perfect! But yea, I agree with Luciano, to many magazines up top. Magazines like that are GOLD and would be kept in asecure location inside unless we are reading one! Those magzines look familier?

Thanks for your rating. With reference to Magazines - is there only two Daily prints and five magazines, next two maps and two satellite photos. I think that in War in possible look on nice girls.

Looks Good.
I will agree, there might just be a bit to many magazines on the turret.
Keep up the good work.

Very nice work indeed. What markings did you use? All I can tell is that the crew members must be Danzig fans (judging from the skull logo on the first pic)!

At first I was going to make more comments on the magazines/maps/water bottle cases and road/environment dusting.
Then I re-read the title of your thread..."Finished".
So, on that note...very good job. You have executed a wonderful build. Can't wait to see what your next one will be.

The last pic looks better, but I still think there is too much loose stuff on top. Also, if a soldier is up in the turret, presumably on watch, he doesn't have time to look at magazines. You would see a map and maybe a couple satellite pics, but not the other stuff. As Pete said above, the magazines and girly pics would be stored safely away. Also, when that Brad moves, all the loose boxes and papers will go flying away. Especially teh large map, which is on teh gunner's side. The gunner rarely is even out ogf teh hatch during ops. The BC (Bradley Commander) is on the other side. Good job overall, just a little overzealous on the extra gear.

Awesome Bradley man! I loved those magaizines, where can I find them? The size of the map isn't a big deal, usually on mission you'd find them folded in half, and bungee chorded in front of the BC. The chord would run from the dog house to the antennae mount guard next to the BC station. Almost all loose paper would be bungee chorded down, plus we always used "sticky" laminate that weighted it down. Sattlite images we put in document protectors and clipped them to the back of our maps. I would say this though... I think the amount of gear is fine on top, BUT the crew hatches should be open. It wasn't unusual ( though not encouraged) for a BC and a Gunner to be out of their hatches pulling security, one actively, and the other maybe flipping through a magazine. If you are portraying a Brad on mission, I'd recommend the hatches open like in your first pic, because that's the way most vehicles operate in Iraq.
Again, Great Job!

Fantastic work! I really want to get mine done now!! The painting is perfect and the weathering is just spot on. I would agree that perhaps there is a bit too much reading material on top, but whats wrong with artist license now and again-not every model has to be spot on accurate.
Will you ever do a massive detail job on the Bradley like you have done with the M977 and other stuff, becuase obviously there is lots of room for improvment on Tamiyas kit.

Superbly splendid work Milo.
Truly splendid indeed.
However, i think there´s a bit to many magazines on the turret. Would look great if some of em´ magazines where folded or tucked away beneath some boxes etc. at the back of the turret.
By the way, as im not the over-expert on the production lines of all the major hobby companies, so i wounder what is the company brand that´s made your Bradly? (At least it´s not DML....or is it)
Yet again, that´s a lovely peace of armour you got there Milo.
Cheers /

Very nice indeed. I think the scratches were done very nicely as well.
by the way, is there any chance you could email the copies of the scaled maps and magazines to me? Would love to add that to my build as well.
Any clues would did them as well?

WOW excellent job !!!!
What was your choice of the base color ?
I still have trouble to find a good sand base coat because i saw too many pictures of OIF armor with different sand colors.
