Tom,
Very cool as usual. Is that a Lav on the bottom right? Did you lose the turret and cur open the top in the back?? Please share.

I thought that might get some attention!! I am making a Stryker, I completed the frame and need to cut and glue on the cage rails. I saw it on CNN and found some pics on-line....real cool Urban combat APC

that's pretty neat...sounds like the name of a GI Joe toy!

How are you doing the railings around the vehicle (which i presume are to defeat RPG rounds).

[tderespino]

I picked up some wire flower/craft stems from the hobby store, I need to cut them to size, glue on the frame and then spray paint OD green. tom

very cool work tom, nice looking stryker, be sure to show close ups when its done, and where are the horses from?

[tderespino]

Thanks to everyone for your comments,,,

The 1/18 - 90mm horses are from Papo.

I still have a lot of work left on the stryker, the protective cage is not a fun build. I will post some more pics as I go

Again, nice Romans! Here's a challenge - make a Triumph parade diorama, complete with Arch structure, the guys in chariots, troops, and barbarian captives!

Not a bad Idea, some exotic warrior women also??

[dangaroo]

You might get some ideas from the new Alexander movie coming out this November. Even though it's not Roman there is going to be some exotic women in the movie like Angelina Jolie. I have a feeling tmanthegreat will be the first in line since he has a picture of the Greek emperor.
