WIP: SPECIAL FORCES HUMVEE

Here is model number 3 which is a M1025 converted into a special forces Humvee with a ibis tek front bumper, live resin save a gunner turret and mini gun for the main gun, i also have some men which are from masterbox.

Here's the chassis and the start of the ibis tek bumper

3 and 4/10/2015

Here is the finished ibis tek bumper.

The legend productions set has you make some modifications to the body and add various bits of resin.

This is the gunner's pedestal which i decide to have elevated, for this i used evergreen plastic.

i have made a good stride on my special forces Humvee by making the roof fit with the roll bar, the side rails and various parts in the back compartment.

WIP: M1A1 ABRAMS TANK

WIP: M1A1 ABRAMS TANK

Here is model no.2 a abrams with mine plow and tusk 1 armor upgrade.

The Abrams has taken an unexpected hitch with the photo etch set (the saying bit of more than you can chew ) is an understatement, i have lost my patience with it because after making 2 of the side boxes the 3rd one broke into 3 bits, so after doing some research on eBay i have now bought the legend productions tusk 1 set which is resin and hopefully after a week or two i will be back finishing the model and making it ready for paint.

These are the pictures after my spray session. The pictures of the resin set are on my other hard drive , i will get them up soon to show the set i used.

7-8/11/2015

Both sides of the wheels completed, just waiting for the tracks to dry so i can then start to paint them.
