Coyote

[SeanM]

Just completed!

Great kit: fits together very well and good detail for the scale. Dors and side stowage racks are quite easy to leave movable it's so well engineered.

Some tips I can give from my experiece with this one:

Leave the sand channel off until after painting & decaling. There's a reg-plate decal goes behind it.

Do the decals on the dash-board before attaching the front portion to the chassis

Paint the tools, on the face of the step up to the gunners platform, while you can still get easy access to them

The wheels are a tight fit over the hubs. As I left them off until after painting so I could do the hubs black and the wheel rims sand, they were an even tighter fit....the axels are fragile: be careful!

But despite those bits, which are more my fault than anything, I really enjoyed the build and am pleased with the result. Now to get the Jackal!

Hope you like it and all comments welcomed

That is quite the feral looking beast!

A nice build, this and the Jackal are a couple of kits I must build!

WELL DONE. Does anyone do the Jackal in 1/48th scale ? Carl T

[Chris B]

Airfix do one in 1/48 as well as the Coyote.

Pardon me if im being stupid but in the first pic is the hazard decal upside down???

Oops! I hadn't spotted that...in my defense they are tiny! It's only in photos I can see that detail. I did notice after it was on that it should have been around the base of the antenae mount....
