Nice build in unusual markings. Great job on the camo netting which looks very realistic.

Thanks for sharing

i spent 16 years on 113's before we went to Humvee's (POS). i like the way you made the bolt holes for the track shrouds. are those metal tracks?

nice build

Hi BV Bass, bolt hole came in the kit (Academy), so you can built it with or without track shrouds. Tracks are vinyl, from the kit.
