Project almost complete (and ready for prime time)

Post by Gunner » Sat Dec 24, 2005 10:13 pm

OK, I've been working on this project for a while, and it's finally ready to premire...

I found a 120mm Verlinden M113 ACAV set in resin. It's a little over scale, but it's all I had.

I had to re-shape one side of the cupola to fit, and I had to trim lots of places, but I think it will look pretty good when I'm finally done...

I wasn't going to use the Verlinden M-60s, but it turned out they weren't that much bigger than the other ones I had in my collection. I'm NOT looking forward to adding all the photo-etch details to the guns - some of the parts are TINY!

I need to finish patching the holes in the hull, but I'm pretty happy with the status so far...
