Afternoon all!
Today I'm starting my build of the AFV Club M88 Nam. This is the original gasoline powered version of the M88, I have plans to use this in a diorama in Taiwanese service along the AFV Club CM11 (Here's my build log of that if you're interested (http://intscalemodeller.com/viewtopic.p ... 02#p185002)

I plan to build this out of the box, and as with my CM11 build, I will be showing the sprues and instructions as they come up in the build. If you have any questions or comments then please feel free to ask! First I want to show the great job nolajewelryandcollectibles from ebay did on packaging the kit, despite being over a decade old it was still in mint condition! I'd also like to apologize in advance for the crappy phone pictures :crazy:

Here are Steps 1-4

And the hull, and Sprues A,B,C and D

Here's the final result of today's work, it's not much at all, really I couldn't wait until tomorrow to get my feet wet but I'll have more work to show by the end of week. Thanks for reading, Happy Holidays! :hi:

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I finally got the tri-tone camo scheme down, I used Tamiya TS-78 and Red Brown, along with Vallejo Dark Rubber. I still need to do a couple more coats of black and brown, but it's nearly complete!

Nice build. Look forward to some additional photographs of the finished model. Have always liked the M88.
