Tango 1 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Hello Again! Here is a second submission from my mate Eric who does not get to show many of his kits, today is his first outing sharing any of his work on the web and he'd lov eto know what you lot think about his builds-so make his day and tell him what you think good or bad! This is the 1/35 Italeri M113 a Verlinden conversion. The figures and accessories were out of the spares box to make the scene. Hope you enjoy looking at this one, thanks for stopping by! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapper_city Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 On closer inspection, should the .50 cal be mounted on it's side??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredben Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Very nice, makes all the difference with a few extras showing with the M113. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango 1 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thanks for your feedback! Eric is well pleased that you like his model. Mark, I'll have to ask, but I think the weapon mounting folds into that position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango 1 Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Asked about the mounting for the 50 cal, turns out it's a collapsable mounting that folds the weapon down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HL-10 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Nice little model, and a nice little setting for it, lovely attention to detail! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave A Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Very nice, but a coat of matt varnish on the figure wouldn't half make him look less like a toy soldier!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centaur95 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) Nice model. No criticism of the modeller intended, but the Verlinden TUA is woefully inaccurate. Check out this image of the Legends set to see what the roof layout should actually look like. You could also do an NM142 (the Norwegian version of the TUA), but they don't fit all the roof boxes and the MG is an MG3 rather than an FN MAG http://www.primeportal.net/apc/vik/nm-142_photos.htm Cheers, Centaur Edited May 18, 2014 by Centaur95 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
