1/35 AFV Club Vietnam M113


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys, This is my completed M113 to go with the Centurion I recently finished.  The level of detail in this kit is amazing and some of tiny parts really tests your fine motor skills Fit was great, however the removal of flash and joins from the finer parts was a challenge.  I have based my model on a Aussie M113A1 circa 1967-8 with the Resin APC crew from Firestorm models.  I have ordered the RAAC M113 conversion which will add some stores and ammo crates top side in preparation for the FSB Coral diaroma. Still very novice at weathering but I am happy with my fine grey splatter to simulate chips and scratches (thanks youtube).  Anyway guys I hope you like and I certain welcome advice and suggestions.  Cheers Fitzy6bc943ea-e5aa-4e1e-bb1e-e62945e78262.jpg9db8b5f0-67e7-4881-be96-2a23bad65f71.jpg97cf781b-8440-4a3a-ba1b-b7eb46458736.jpgbc32e5b3-ebda-4c41-b37e-a1ecc13b7cbe.jpg43a87e43-9610-46f6-9937-59ad38074dec.jpgab0446a0-f270-476d-992f-020781acf35c.jpg19380931-667e-431e-9d96-99415c510f46.jpg26a521ad-a295-41bc-9433-49dbf164eabf.jpg5d29619b-c643-4be3-ba01-80170286e9c7.jpgfea5d29c-054d-4178-a505-d273ae9dde54.jpg059e7f6d-f5b2-43a7-963d-6e38745402b5.jpg  0519fe98-76fd-4a5d-b650-4e70b01a46ed.jpg277998a4-6f46-49be-92e6-309e2798b88c.jpg2e30020d-281a-40ec-8e46-a26a7cd32896.jpg02f1b1a5-abc7-4c54-aa4b-0b875521eb31.jpg

An iconic vehicle,the M113 has seen many changes over its life,you have created a great model of this kit,and the added figures give it another dimension, also they both look like they have been having some test trials in the Red Outback,Cheers.

Thanks Jim, Having had the joy of spending time as a grunt in a "bucket"  you are spot on everyone and everything was covered, but hey a second class ride is better than a first class walk :)
