The Raminator Arms Bazar dealer has come through, and Im set for all things modern!
PKM aside, I have Type 56's and AKMs/RPKs , RPGs and AKSU's out the hoo-haa!! and 100mm gun ammo crates for Africa (and WW2 models too!)
All of a sudden this tank has character and I cant wait to finish it off.
If any of you have a Technical, T72 , T90, T55 or suchlike, he has the gear for YOU
A haughty thanks to Mr Raminator for his skill, patience and dedication to create fantastic accessories for our models.

I think ole Idi is persona-non-grata now! The African Union Mission In Somalia was/is an attempt to sort out problems in Africa by Africans' themselves, rather than the U.N.
Makes a good subject for a model !

Got on with the beautiful stowage today, and its come out pretty good.
I still need to do the small arms & RPG's but for now I can get the stowage onto the tank.
Base coated the loader figure & also another one while I was at it for my old Jagdpanther. He looks a bit' U Boat commander-ish' rather than a Tanker but he'll be ok in it.
There is a lot to go on the rear of this thing, and I still need to be able to get the hull open for battery changes

I thought those were a bargain until I saw the price was in US dollars, not Australian dollaridoos. $300 with shipping and GST!
All the stowage and figures are off to a great start, the chipping on the ammo crates looks awesome!

Got key elements of the stowage on.
Still to weather and tie it but it’s on. Still lots more to add .
