Meng 1/35 British Army HUSKY TSV

[Steve Brodie]

Hi Steve
That is a lot of kit for a fairly small vehicle. Fiddly to assemble perhaps but stunning detail. The AA resin conversion looks comprehensive and AA stuff is well fitting. What are the AA instructions like. Sometimes after market stuff instructions take some figuring out. Looks like you're off to a good start.
Jim

Instructions are really good, made up of CAD drawings;



and actual photos of the resin in place;

Thanks, (geek alert ) think the MRAP is built by General Dynamics and the Husky by Navistar

Yes, my mistake, as I know that General Dynamics also make 4 wheel models I thought the Husky was theirs...........................wrong again.

One of the perils of a 14 week old cocker spaniel puppy. Seat looks like its took a lot of incoming fire!!. Hopefully I can get a replacement from AA

Got the bowman packs painted and other comms kit as well. Added to the racks. Floor pads painted along with mats. A few scratches added. Will need some dust and washes added to the areas;

Thanks John. I was a bit daunted by the resin, but with the right tools , have managed to get a few bits off intact. So confidence is building.

resin sagged wheels have arrived from Accurate Armour along with a replacement resin seat

Pretty exceptional work Steve.

Started 'plumbing' in the Comms gear;

Always a fun job, all that wiring and figuring out where it needs to go But it certainly looks the business

I reckon 99.9% guess work. Plenty of photos of the inside of the cab without comms gear on the Internet and unsurprisingly no photos of it kitted out.

Looking impressive Steve .

Just seen this one Steve, some great goodies to go with it and a cracking build so far.

Been slowly working on finishing off the cables and getting some paint on the seats;
