[lmcq11]

Hi,

Following completion of the build on the Modern build section at viewtopic.php?f=202&t=24973, here are some pictures of my Marder 1A1 for those who like to check out the Show Off section.

The model is made from the following components;
- Ludwigs-Hobby plasticard and resin turret basic kit
- Cannibalizing of a HL Leopard 2A6 lower hull for parts; roadwheels, suspension, tracks, sprocket, Idler, gearbox, speaker, tools

The model features;
- 20mm gun turret rotation, gun elevation, gun flash and sound
- 7.62mm rear turret rotation, gun flash and sound
- opening and closing rear ramp
- scratch built interior of fighting crew compartment, including turret basket
- Clark TK-60 controller with 10 channels Flysky remote
- Head lights, tail lights and interior lighting
- Diehl tracks individually resized for Marder width

I like to model rare armored vehicle I have not seen before, especially APCs with interior details. Hope you like it,

I must try and find my thesaurus. It can get a bit tedious otherwise just calling your work stunning and outstanding every time.

Another masterful result, Louis! The combination of the museum-quality model, natural lighting and photography make it hard to tell it's not a real one! That interior is really something else. Well done!

[Will01Capri]

That is really cool, love the interior detail aswell, the interior really sets it apart

[wibblywobbly]

Quite simply, you have some amazing skills, not many do interiors, but those that do seem to have acquired the art that turns a model into something very real. Excellent work.
