Andy Moore Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 This is IBG's newish release of the Polish Rosomak APC, which is really just a licence built version of the Finnish Patria. It's a very nice kit, with a pretty much full interior supplied, although hardly any of it can be seen, even with all the hatches open. The fit was great and the detailing's good. The wheels/tyres in particular were nice, being all styrene, so much easier to paint and weather than the usual soft vinyl type. Not the most inspiring of colour schemes, and the weathering's a bit bland, but it's pretty representative of how they looked when they were operating in Chad. Thanks for looking Andy 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I thought that looked a nice kit as I boxed it up to send out for review, but you've proved my suspicions now - Nice job 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Moore Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 Thanks guys 1 hour ago, batcode said: how did the kit go together???ask as got one in the pile plan on doing soon?? Much better than I expected it to. I thought, due to all the internal bulkheads, the upper and lower hull parts would end up very gappy when joined, but they actually fitted perfectly. The only really tricky part of the build is fitting all the diffs, props and suspension arms to the chassis. The go together okay, but you just need a bit of patience while lining everything up. There's a build guide here Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
