This was to be a Taliban version but I liked the African rebel type.
She is 4X4, had to do some mods to the rear to hide the battery, this lifts up, all RC bits hidden in the front and mid section, used micro speed controller etc. All metal running gear and new wheels added.
Repainted the figures, added checker-plate to the rear and made a storage box using the same checker-plate plasticard, made some metal grab rails and rope coiled the rear one. Was lucky I found a gun in a charity shop months ago and it was earmarked for this job, stripped and repainted, found some ammo belts that fitted the gun so with hacking and drilling managed to get the thing to fit, it also swivels on the base to allow battery access. Interior stripped out and repainted with figure and accessories added.
The camo was roughly painted by hand as I wanted it to look like that is what was done.
Weathered and sealed.
