AFV Club CRV/T Scorpion 8/24 ( CALLING THIS FINISHED )

[Leon]

Tobi thank you.Will use fruils whenever finances allow it.

Dicky,thank you kindly sir .Hope to have them primed,painted,and mounted this weekend.

[Leon]

Evening guys,got the fruils and M60 tracks primed.Will post pics later tonight or tomorrow.Plan on getting paint on tomorrow.

[Leon]

Evening guys,fruils have been painted and installed.Just a little weathering on the tracks,some touch up work and then a coat of dull coat and i'll call this finished.Hope you like it.











Thanks for looking and as always ACW.

Looking at those tracks Leon,the REME in me says that is ONE well maintained vehicle mate!!The tracks look SPOT ON to me,Young Mac may shed some more light,cos believe it or not,I think he actually served in CVR/T's,but they look right to me,mate!!

[Leon]

Cee Bee,thank you kindly.Very much appreciated.If the tracks look spot on to you then i did a good job on them.

[Tobi]

Very nice! Looks like a vehicle on a roadblock somewhere in Ex-Yugoslavia. Not every modell has to be soiled up to the turret top!

A little more indirect light would help in the pics. Light from the front is always a spoiler, as it darkens the object and hides the details.

Cheers,
Tobi

Very nice job on them tracks Leon, defo worth the extra cash in my books mate. Will be cracking on with mine tonight, really should get it finished. Did you have 72 each side to or didn't you count them ?

[Leon]

Tobi,thank you.Very much appreciated buddy .You must have read my mind on the roadblock .I want to make a dio with a roadblock,just have to find some figures.I'll be taking some pics outside after i get the dull coat on.

Robbo,thank you kindly mate ;)Fruils were well worth the money and they look really good .I had to use 73 links on each side.72 were really stretching it.I'll be watching to see you finish yours.

[deafpanzer]

Great build you did very good. Am afraid you are going to go Friuls for all future builds now.

[Leon]

Thank you kindly Andy .I believe your right about the Fruils if money allows them.

[Leon]

Afternoon all,just about ready to call this build finished.Got the dullcoat on and as soon as it dries i'll post pics.

Thanks for looking.

[Leon]

Hi guys,i am officially calling this build done.It was a fun build and the Fruils look awesome.Hope you like it











Thanks for looking and always ACW

Could be tough!

Warrior had a selection of modern British UN soldiers back then, also may have been re-issued under Lincoln Country Line. But where to find these? Only old stocks here and there.

I had fun following your thread too! You did very well with this one!

Now I have to ask you this very important question... what will be your next build? LOLOLOL

Edit- Just remembered your M60 build. I am not morning person and I haven't had enough coffee. Of course you can tell us what you will build after M60!

[Leon]

Andy,glad you were along for the ride buddy.Your comments are well appreciated.

After the M60 is done i would like to get in on the T90 GB.

[406 Silverado]

Very nice work there Leon. Those NATO vehicles/colors are not the easiest to weather, reason why I never did one...lol Nice work bud, now nto the next build..lol

[Leon]

Rob,thanks for the kind words .They mean a lot coming from you .You are right about the weathering on the UN vehicles.I looked at a lot of images and all of them looked pretty clean.

[Leon]

Dicky,very much appreciated mate.on to the 60 it is.

[wing_nut]

[Leon]
