Hello. I haven't been here for a long time and I haven't seen these posts. Your AVRE is very nice. I lost inspiration for mine after my package with a dozer from Haya UK was lost.

That must hurt Mr Igi911.
Tell ya what.
Send it down here & I will do my best to make a dozer set up for you, but sending it back may take a while !!!

Thank You HERMAN BIX. I already have a printed dozer, I just need to mount it properly. Unfortunately, I have completely lost inspiration.

I’m intrigued by the suspension of these factory built centurions as a pose to the suspension on my Ludwig build
It’s your tank it’s what you make it

Hello after a long absence.

Looking for new information about the "Easy Posse" model, I did some research and managed to reach the driver of one of the tanks that took part in the operation in the Persian Gulf. I got an incredible amount of photos and information from him, as well as stories. I had no choice but to change the model I wanted to model to the one called "Edmund B II".

Currently I have installed an armor plate at the front and I am installing additional reactive armor.

Interestingly, the additional armor came from the FV510 Warrior

Cheers!

Edit. as for the lettering, I definitely need to order decals. My hands definitely can't write it and there are 4 letters, 1 on each side :headbang:

Printable decals that you can knock out on your printer seeimingly give good results. Ive used sunnyscopa I bought from amazon to do some for my Korean war centurion, and as long as you use plenty of clearcoat straight after printing, it works very well.
This looks very nice.

Buy a cheapo Epson ink jet printer, cheap as chips and will do a good job printing decals on the pukka paper. :thumbup: :thumbup:
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:
