    Default Modelling military vehicles

    Hi all. It's been a long time since I checked in. I think it's been about a year and half since I posted something. Been busy with many things at once. I usually come in here looking for pics of vehicles that will spark my interest. At the time there was someone who had asked me to post some pics of some of my builds. I had totally forgotten about that. I apologies.

    Well, now it's 2006, I thought I'll showcase some of my builds that I have been troubling some of you good folks for reference pics of for a while now. I've made a link to them at the bottem of this post. So I hope you like what I've done. I do try to replicate my favorite vehicles to the best I can using reference from where ever I can find them. So when I do ask for them, it's because I'm trying to model them. Hope you understand.

    For most of the photos i got from links provided by you good gentlemen and I appreciate it very much. So, without further a due; enjoy the pics:

    Thank you guys. I'm happy you liked them. I'm working on another model now and would love to find a reference photo of the turret part of it. It's the Turkish atiligan stinger launcher.. I do have some pics of it but the top part is one I don't have any pics of. So if anyone has any or a link then please post it. I'm grateful. Thank you again.

    These made me want to start building again! Nice!

    They could use more weathering, but other than that, you have the basics more than well under control there.

    Wow, impressive!! I really love the gun trucks; and as a former M113 FOV Technical Inspector, I liked those as well! I am attaching a couple pics, hopefully you could use them. I have quite a few of the first one, and a high-res of the third one, if you're interested. Thanks for posting! Cheers.

    Thanks everyone.

    Carbine, I guess it all depends on how heavy weathering one would like to achieve. The vehicles I modelled are all based on cettain pics of the real thing and most are not very heavily weathered. So that is purely a cosmetic choice but thanks for your view.

    Thanks guys. Really nice of you.

    Deadhorse, yes please, I would like some of those high resolutions if you don't mind. My e-mail is c.king@telia.com

    Gregb, some images would be nice too. Thank you.

    Again, reminding anyone if they 've come across detail pics of the Atiligan please let me know, Especially the turret or the entire top surface would be nice. Thanks all. You're too kind.
