Introduction
Pro Art Models released the conversion kit for the SF LMTV. In order to give extra life to this truck, gears were necessary. This kit was just released after the SF LMTV conversion; it contains 20 bags of 10 different models. It is not subject related and you can easily use such bags in different vehicle as well for different nationalities. Those bags are really generic and will find a place in most of modern vehicles.
Content of the kit
20 bags in yellow resins in 10 different models. In my review sample, the bags were free of air bubbles and it was not possible to see any seam lines.
For better picture rendition, washes have been applied prior to photo session, Special thanks to Pierrick Bouheden aka Superfrelon for the washes and the pictures.
Review
These bags are a mix of military issues bags and civilian’s one. You have in this kit:
- 3 different types of duffle bags
- 3 types of 3-days assault bag or rucksack similar to Arc’teryx
- 2 types of equipment bags
- 1 sling-bag
- 1 Civilian duffel bag similar to The North Face Base
The duffle bags are nicely sculpted with all details like the name pockets and the straps. The grooves are a bit too deep to be realistic. The 3 different sizes are not the same giving you more freedom to mix them in your vehicle.
Other bags especially rucksack (from Arc’teryx) are nicely detailed and most of zippers are highly represented. PALS webbing is great and dimensionally accurate.
Civilian bags are a good addition especially when it comes to decorating a SF vehicle. Those bags can be used directly laying on floor.
If you want to depict hanging bags please check my review of Item 35046 from PAM.
Conclusion
This is an excellent addition for modern modelers that would like to add some extra dimension to their vehicle build. The look of such bags is unique and not a copy from other sources or manufacturers. Highly recommended.
