Just spent a little bit catching up on this thread, and it's incredible. You're a styrene wizard, Sub!

Nice to see the TCB getting some use, it's a shame they're out of production. Hopefully someone will pick them up, or we'll have to rely on Arduino plug-in shields in the future.

A few more.
Nearly finished the painting now.
3 black vertical stripes are for the convoy light.
Small white square on left storage bin is for a red cross where first aid kit is stowed.
Then fit number plates, fire extinguishers, headlights, etc,etc

I checked the real thing just to be sure it existed. It did. Although personally not my favorite camo scheme, I recognize the technical difficulties of reproducing it. It takes courage and skills. Absolutely authentic.

Hi.
Been a while since i updated this build so...
A few pics of me starting to add all the little detail bits, a few diy decals and the diy number plate, one pic in daylight the other in darkness with it illuminated.
Also started to detail the fire extinguishers, just need the handles etching and painting black

Wow! :clap: It's all such sophisticated modeling. The motto for the Tuesday modelers who gather at my place is "Make Modeling Mediocre Again."
