Just found a part missing (looking at sprue it seems to never have been cast which is very odd). IBG contacted, on to next steps... Can we see a photo of it please?

Both doors will be left open, as well as front and rear vision hatches so should be some light... Mostly the sidewalls I guess.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoftScience Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Your armor models always blow me away because of the small, simple, but meaningful additions you make. Like your Coke can brackets and your simple but effective interior work. Seeing this has me considering my Canadian Archer... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like to see what research is available and see what can com of it. Some of it is more complex than others but even a small personal touch (stowage, little but of scratch building, an unusual camo scheme) keeps the hobby interesting - after all building vehicle after vehicle in olive drab would get a little bit monotonous for me..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
