1/35 Tamiya M2A2 Bradley ODS IFV

[spud]

I have kits already for the juniors

Let's wait and see if I finish the kit and you feel it is prize worthy. If that's the case we can discuss where to send the kit. I will say this, to protect my Secret "007" type identity, I'll probably have you send it to one of the SMA mods.

Thanks for the challege to finish!

Now we know what Santa does with all of the naughty children's presents; he builds them himself during his vacation! ;D

Hello everybody,

I've spent a good amount of time at the bench the last few days and have got plenty of work done.

Lower hull complete:








I have since moved on to the turret.
Here is a picture of the mold quality of the main gun (the kit gives two guns for different variants of the vehicle.)


You will see I drilled out the gun barrel and muzzle break.

Yup, the light shines through. ;D


Hope you guys like!

Looking good Santa!

will you be adding any resin upgrades?

Looking good Santa!

Thanks Les!

will you be adding any resin upgrades?

I am going to do the build pretty must OOB other than maybe the tracks. I've been checking out some of the AFV tracks, might pick those up. In terms of stowage etc, the kit comes with a ton of it. Tamiya loaded this thing up, it came with figures too but I've already glued down the hatches.

[Grendels]

Magic dust..... Isn't that illegal???

 

[TRM]

No, they passed the vote in one of the last elections up there!!

 

[SecretSanta]

[TRM]
