discussion 1 35 VTLM Lince

[Lee W]

Hi all,


Here's my latest disaster in the making from Italeri.


Not a bad kit, I decided that I didn't want to stick direct with the marking options, so I'm going my own way with it! Paint scheme from the kit but added bits on to make it more involved.


Doors, rear exhaust, top protection and a figure or 2...maybe a simple base then it's complete...and the weathering!


Here's some pics to be going with...sorry forgot the build pics...didn't take any

Looks like a cracking job to me Lee........ I like it

 

[Guest]

I am part way through this one Lee and have to say I am a little disappointed with it, heavy mould seams. flash and a mass of ejector pin marks will make up into a nice model when done but way more clean than a new tool should have, anyway yours looks fine.

 

[Guest]

Looking very good to me!


The paintwork is fine so far

 

[Guest]

Nice looking kit, and looks spot on to me, nice work on the camo scheme

 

[papa 695]

Looking very good Lee

 

[Guest]

Looks good to me as well, paintwork is nice, build looks good. Could do with some more external pics with better lighting for us to appreciate it more though

Got to go back over the paint, add a decal, add top cover, do the weathering and maybe I should be somewhere close to finishing...hopefully!


Waiting for the usual

Sounds good, there is a plethora of weathering options on this by the looks of it, are you putting wear on the handles hinges and steps etc... Its going to look sweet being a nice chunky truck

 

[geegad]

Superb build and real nice work on the camo
