Nice work again J. Good to see you saved the undercarriage arm on the Stryker. CA can be blooding annoying, specially when it hot weather. Try and keep it cool if you can.

Nice one John, keep those Stryker juices flowing Sir Thanks Paul ! So far it's been fun building those, I'm leaving the engineering versions to last. But I still have two or three kits to start this Summer...
Lunch now and workbench later

Coming along extremely nicely, John. I like the weathering on the wheels.

Today's work ::
Trumpeter M1134,
Some issues here, D7 is too short for the holes.
Next, M1133,I added a few more details on the hull.
AFVClub M1130, Added the clear parts and started painting the jerrycans.
Trumpeter Grad-21 on Zil Truck, painted the radiator.
Another problem, both ends of the connecting piece that fixes the Rockets broke...I'll have to sort it out later on.
Dragon's Grille....
(this is going to be a PE nightmare...but It's my fault...all my fault here.....)
Managed to get the lever PE done.
These Grille's will have a slow pace build like the Miniart kits, so be patient...
Back to the Tiran's, Crude Pre Wash & wheels
Tiran-6, Pre Wash.
Well if you noticed I got the Quinta set for this one, so here we go...
And to finish the day, AFVClub LVTH, top hull details added
And that's it for today !!!!
