Hi Marcelo

Don't forget that there are several posibilities when it comes to the gun shield shape (apart from the M1114 factory-built shield such as the one included in Blast Models set). Here are some examples, including a M113 ACAV gun shield...

Great, Joe!

It´s exactly what I´m looking for.

Thanks!


Henry,

Yes, ACAV shield is an option, but I prefer the standard Humvee plate... like the one Epi drawn.

Bye,

Marcelo
