This one has been kinda bubbling under the surface alongside the BMD, and now that's finished time to hunker down and get this one sorted. Not much in the way of pics todate but promise some more very soon  . |

Final dry-fit of sub-assemblies together for a look-see before primer/base-coat.   I'm currently planning a simple olive drab -as per the early '80's, something different from the more usual NATO 3-tone, Merdec or Sand. P |

Following a couple of light coats of Vallejover drab primer. This stuff is fast becomming my primer of choiceready to use from the bottle and providing a good base coat as well. Can't fault it so far    Block/detail colouring to follow: running gear wheels, ammo boxes and wooden tool handles etc# At this rate i'm going to need to lie down in a darkened room soon. Posted more in the last 24 hours than in the preceeding 24 days  P |

Nice work on the primer Paul. As for your question on the lenses, I would guess using white glue or something similar would be the best way. CA might result in some hazing as it degasses.

Nice work Paul, I agree, Cyano is to aggressive, the vapours wil cause the transparent parts to get a mist on them spoiling their clarity. PVA or canopy glue used by wingyists will sort ya.

Love it! There definitely need to be more Bradleys built. For such a well-used vehicle, you don't see too many.
