First off ild like to thank Scott of SMA for getting such a great link With hobby link and Ken For showing us mear mortals what you can acheave with a cheap bit of plastic.

Well seeing as my Rbmodels bits wont arive till monday ish for my Stryker build i decided to get this on the bench, Boy was it a joy to build,

I dint fancy seem filling so i decided to try wedls seems and im pretty happy with how they turned out, I still have some things to do to it before it going into paint so here is what ive got.

Nope was an easy kit the weld seems took as long as the build :/

Nice one Spud!!!...I wish my welds had come out that good,when I used to weld!

[spud]

Lol cb

[spud]

I wasnt too happy with how the hoses looked so i grabed some brass wire and coiled it around and i think it looks way better,




Ive added a cast texture to this back peice and the shield, I used Tamiya basic putty mixed with nail posih remnover and stipiled it on with an old brush,



and thats it, will get primer on tonight and figure out what color im going to do it. im thinking it wont have green.
