Is his dad that small? Sorry, couldn’t resist!!![(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]
Very impressive for a first try in armor. Hope to see more armor from your workbench soon.
Really nice work there Ron!! Seems a shame to leave them there. But them be the rules.
Keep safe over there.
Arty, you are probably right on the bradley. It was my first build and my imagination ran wild after I got done with it. As for the rest of it, “I will never accept defeat, I will never quit” ROFLMAO! But hey, its all in good fun and it helped me to keep my sanity.
As for the soil, it contains all kinds of goodies, like hoof and mouth disease, natural forms of anthrax, all stuff that would desimate our agricultural industry if it got back state side. Like you, I have no desire to spend $35 on a T bone, so the thing can stay here.
Thanks for all of your comments guys, I realy do appreciate all of them.

Ron,
as the others have said, very nice work, especially for your ‘first real stab’ at armor.
multi-vehicles & many figures is a bold start!
my only suggestion is a simple one
(i am just hoping i am correct, as i have been no closer to a Bradley than the AFV Interiors site!!)
on the shot where you can look into the rear of the vehicle -
if you drill out the lightenening holes in the seats & their frames,
it will improve the appearance over the depressions that they mold in the pieces.
i learned this on the seat of a 1/48 “Hamp”.
thanks for posting your builds.
keep safe.
Hey Arty,
I forgot to thank you for helping to set this thing straight. I have the correct bradley on the way and will post pics when it is done.
LOL
Great job, Ron [tup]
Looks good, great stowage and details. Great camo on the figures.
Nice job
This is the contact I found too, but haven’t had a reply to the email in a week, maybe he is just a little busy.
Ron, Glad I could help. I’m sure the M2A2 will look great. Just so you know though, no interior in the new kits. The old interior does work in it though (with some updates).
Woooah Ron! VERY impressive indeed! Glad I stopped in here now, thanks!! [:)]
Take care,
Frank
Fantastic work, I agree with Rebelreenactor it looks to clean… Beat them up, weather them a bit and they will look perfect, put some tracks in the sand and some grease on the wheels and the pivot points!
It might be also that the picture looks real clean, and in real life they look fantastic and very realistic… some of the weathering detail is lost in the picture maybe?
A+++ on the animation of the characters!! (I love the guy who is diving for cover with his “bazooka”), The camoflaging of the soldiers are spotlessly beautiful…
From my own perspective, its easy for me to point out the stuff that is lacking, but far more hard to build… When I first started building models, I remember asking “weathering?? you mean I have to RUIN my model after I just made it so NICE??”
Hehehheheh…
Ohh and by the way, thanks, for protecting our butts over here while you are over there, hope you get to come home soon… [tup][tup][tup]
Very, very nice, good job! Hope to see more soon [:)]
