Hi Guys,

Finished this one up last night. It's just sitting on an old temporary base for now, the eventual plan is to do a large base for all my desert armour (Abrams, Bradley, Challenger, Warrior, Humvee and maybe a Landrover and M-RAP) in a sort of FOB scene.

Really enjoyed this kit (other than the 6 part track links), typical Meng quality with very good fit. The paint was Hataka orange line (laquer) and the weathering was done with oils and pigments.

Stunning work Bob. Very impressed with the finish. Liking the idea of a dio with a few vehicles together. Hope it goes well for you. Thanks for sharing.
