My Finished and Unfinished Armour Projects.

[Captain Caveman III]

First some going projects.
MY ABV-Assault Breacher Vehicle as seen in afghanistan. It's a Monster Mine Clearing tank.




An this is my most strongest build ever. An Israeli (IDF) Merkava Mk. IIID w/PSP-Protective System Pod.


Some say this one is one of my best. it's a WWII German Sd.Kfz 11 Munitionsschlepper I Ausf B.

Chris.

[Captain Caveman III]

I have tryed to post more but this site timed me out and I have lost all the photos and info. So I'll try back later. I see you have to be a quick poster here or you get timed out. An once you get timed out, you have to go through re-logging in again.

So I'll try later.

Scratchbuilding night mares: Achzarit AIAC


My ABV Mine plough!

 

[ronrod62]

Thats some great work

 

[spud]

Is that plough scratch??

 

[Captain Caveman III]

Yep fully Sir. here's some more of my old progress work. Oh let me point this out that the turrer and every thing on the M1s hull is scratchbuild.

 

[spud]

wow

 

[Captain Caveman III]

Ha Ha you like that, the turret on the Merkava is scratch built as well. It's not resin. MY intrest in israeli armour came from a femail love intrest. Through her I built a love of IDF armour.






Bally armor:


Open rear stowage hatch and updated stowage bens. I tell you there are no Academy Mk. III kits with the rear hach opend. You can get an Academy Mk. II that has a open rear hatch, but not the Mk III or IV.

 

[Texaslobo]

Incredible work!

 

[Quaralane]

[iraqiwildman]

That M1-hybrid is so fraken awesome. The plow is an masterful build. Very cool!!!

 

[Jelly]

Wow,

Vince, truly: you must be either another Dalai Lama or a Shaolin Monk of the scratchbuilding.

Don´t know what so say... ??? no, again: that building belongs to another existence level.

Cheers, Vince

Thanks "Texaslobo,Quaralane, TRM,Beobachtungsbereich,iraqiwildman and Jelly" Guys I just try my best to have fun and pass on tips and tricks when I build. Here's a small tip for to day. Do a fill recearch no mater how long it take. To better build the vehicle you want to build. If you can't find andy info or photo on that subject. Ask some, a club member and hobby friend., Like the ones in here.
Some time's you may need to join a new forum to ask for help. I do from time to time.

As for me I joined SMA to pass on any hints and tips. AN show off my style of Modeling. ;D Well any way here's a project I had to stop working on, for a lack of research materials. It's an IDF Heavy APC called the Namera or Namer. It's based on a Merkava Mk. IV chassis.
