OC Chiltern Chicken Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 (edited) Greetings all, I have just returned from just short of a month in the US with the family, which also included trips to Aberdeen Proving Ground & the US Army Ordnance Museum, USS Wisconsin in Norfolk, Virginia and the Eigth Air Force Museum in Savannah, Georgia as well as a 2 week Dineyfest. This build was as a gift to my former Boss from my Iraq tour in '03. A USMC LAV-25 from the first Gulf War. This was built and finished in 2 weeks and although probably not my best work, I am very pleased with the way it turned out. OOB build except for detailing the exhaust with brass mesh. Brush painted with Citadel and Tamiya acrylics. Here be pictures...All comments welcomed as usual.

dahut Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Nice old kit - the ESCI re-pop unless I miss my guess. It was another of the ones I sold off in a Osher-like fit of repacking. Like all of these kits from ESCI-Italeri it was doable. You've proven that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OC Chiltern Chicken Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Thanks all for the kind words, Not the most accurate of kits, but it doesn't scrub up too bad. Once again, work & family is limiting my benchtime, but I hope to get more done in the next few weeks. Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
