Many thanks for your 'likes' Alex and Djordje. It's a strange beast.....

Good work on this monstrosity, Bruce!

Good work. Especially the camo patern.

Many thanks for your compliments, both 😉 It needs a street scene and figures to provide an idea of scale - it really is a big lump 🙂

Can you share the length in 1:35? I 3d printed one but had trouble getting accurate prototype dimensions to scale it. It seems really big.

Very impressive Bruce. 👍

Many thanks, Guy. Ben, I'll update a couple of piccies. Let me know if you need proper dimensions, or more piccies.

Oh perfect, thank you! I will measure my resin print and see how close I got to proper 1:35 scale.

Mines about 1cm shorter than yours. Close enough I guess. It sure is a surprisingly huge vehicle.

Probably be quite intimidating to see that coming round the corner, Ben 😉

It's time this one is re-visited, black lines required. Now, where did I put those steady hands? 😉

You have to give Hobbyboss credit for the job they did on the single piece moulding of the hull on this kit. Barely a parting line to be seen. If I'm feeling brave when I get around to building it, I'll use a black Gundam marker to line the camo.

Welcome, John. I used a small brush with long bristles, and it went quite well. I'm taking the view that the real vehicles would have been hand-printed too, so the odd slip is fine 😉

Very well done. Beautiful colors.

Many thanks, Neuling. Not many parts to this kit, but I was hooked by this very unusual vehicle. Four very detailed machine guns are all but hidden inside.
