Hi gang! Still I'm waiting some paintes form Spain, I decided to build one strange wheeled vheicle: The Husky VMMD (Vehicle mounted Mine Detector). Panda's kit isn't the best in the market, but it's good enought to build a good representation of the real deal. I'll need to add some white plastic and miles of cables/hoses to make it better, but will be a great adition to my colection and the theme of IPMS Brazil in december will be MRAPs. So, lets build this and hope I can do a good work. The box:  The parts:  And after some hours of work, we had this:   
I'll add some detail inside the cab and need to pay atention to the parts and decals because many of them aren't indicated in the instructions. The size of vehicle is impressive, almost as big as the Terminator:  Hope you like! ACC&?W  |

Steve, thanks a lot mate! So, I finished the front and rear structures, with some white stuff and cables/hoses. I needed to exercise my "guess" power, but I think the thing looks good.     Now, I'll paint and detail the interior before close the main hull and add the little detaisl and the detectors (with more cables). Hope you liked! ACC&?W |

Beautiful work, Marco! Additions such as the wiring and plumbing really take the model to another level. Looks great.
