Vlad, welcome to this little blog of mine Sorry for the late reply, I'm right back from a weekend in London. Yes it has full interior, and it's a very detailed one.

Dicky, my visit to London wasn't THAT deep Anthony, you should, truly nice kits Boots, I wish I had, but unfortunately I haven't had the time even to add a single part to it I hope tomorrow I'll have some time to model...

I can wholeheartedly confirm what PiggyBiggles says is true.....London DOES have a full interior and it's a very detailed one!!! Yeah and smells horrifically of cheese for some reason??? Found this out whilst leaving clubs at silly o'clock in the mornings! Anyhow glad to hear the BTR has something inside, worth drawing attention too?

Ok, here we are gents, I have an update! I know it sounds incredible, but I did some modeling, not only nonsense blabbering I took on the suspensions. There are a lot of pieces, this made me uncomfortable. I was scared that the result could be a little weak and easily breakable. I lacked faith in Trumpeter, and I know Dicky will blame me for this. As you can see the structure is solid, and all the pieces contribute to making it a sturdy solid support for the body So, happy with this knowledge, I even finished them and added all the details to the lower hull, except a PE bit that I cannot understand where and what to place: Instructions now take on the interiors (hey vlad, you there?), and start with the soldiers seats in the middle of the hull: Next up driver's compartment with all its devices. As always, ACW

I'm glad I stop by to check this one out, what a great kit bullardino.
Looks like a lot of work has gone into the undercarriage but the detail is superb and the interior looks great as well. I hope you mind if I stop by again as this build has caught my interest and I can't wait to see you bring her to life with a few licks of paint, washes and the like.

Looking good buddy! Like Leon said, what's the pipe for? So much to learn about those Russian armors...

Appears the fit and finish on this was pretty good Lu. Nice work. I'm curious about the pipe too. Any idea what it is?

Vlad a lot more has yet to be added. The interior will be really crowded in the end. I will add also some stowage to replicate the messy look I've usually seen on these apc

Well, I should have found out what is that large tube for. It should be the air duct for the heater that sits in front.
I hope to have some progress this evening...
