Hi!

I have been modelling for couple of years and this is my second try on armor/ifv.+ first for ISM

So i chose Trumpeter LAV-25 1/35.

I did not take so many pictures when assembling the model but heres some.

Kind of messed up this part back of the turret so i decided to make my own.

Missing some steps but this is the current situation.

That scratch made part turned out good in the end.


I got some water bottles and other stuff still in mail so maybe im gona add some backpacks and others stuff at the end of the turret.

+ diorama idea of an roadblock :D

First ever figures.

The next project is going to be PE-8 1/72 so im trying to document that better.

That's great Troska, the weathering is spot on - UN white vehicles are difficult to get right, yours looks perfect.

Figure looks good too.

I painted the model german grey and applied hairspray and vallejo white paint -> time for chipping

Washed model with flory models clay washes. + some soft pastels for pigments.
