All looking very nice Ian.
Never driven a Fox but had some fun in a Ferret in Cyprus.
In my younger days as a student (Yes I was educated, well sort of) I joined the TA. Our main vehicle was the Fox. I was the gunner, I never got to drive.
Made a start on re-painting the figures and dirtying the Scimitar up.
Got the figures completed.
Sorry Ian ive missed a load of this build , just been so busy lately . Its looking fantastic , the paint job is lovely and those tracks are going to look excellent. Cheers tony
Started the weathering on this.
And I’ve got these these to add some stowage.

The model is looking good, but most of that stowage would be inappropriate for a British vehicle. The bed rolls, tarps and things will be OK, but I wouldn’t advise using the helmets, rucksacks, other bags and the bigger ammo cans as they’re all very American and/or WWII. (Not to mention the jerrycans from that last set are about 40 years behind the state-of-the-art, as you will see if you compare them to those in the Allied Vehicle Accessories set that itself is about 20 years behind SOTA

You’re right Jakko, not all of it is for this build. I’m just using a few things just to add effect.
Got some more done to this one, I know it’s late but I just can’t seem to get any modelling done lately. Still got to add more stowage and stuff, but I’m getting there.

Very nice build indeed Ian! Love your weathering too! I completed this Kit as my very recent comeback Kit after a lengthy break from modelling. I did it in UN Colours but OOB. Really enjoyed it.
Thanks James

Seeing your amazing build Ian made me go back and add a touch more weathering to my UN Scimitar! 
Looking forward to seeing your final photos mate.

Very nice James.
I’ve got the Scimitar completed, just need to make a base for it.
