    Excellent stuff that man....a cracking result of two very intimidating AFVs.
    Just love the look of these 8 wheeled monsters. you've made a superb job of making them look "battle hardened", well done indeed mate.

      Good point Chris, some of the smaller 4-wheel armoured cars were equipped with grenade screens but I can only surmise the rationale would be that they wouldn't be engaged in street fighting, and enemy infantry wouldn't be allowed to get get close enough to post an invitation to a funeral! The later iteration of the heavy armoured car based on this chassis, called 'Puma', did have a full turret - there's one on my 'Shelf of Doom' so I may well get round to finishing it soon!

        I too agree with the guys. That's a cracking finish Steve for both vehicles. Nice faded used look on the camo. Looking forward to the Puma.

                I totally missed this one Steve! Sorry about that Sir. That is a great finish and I always love an 8-wheeler too!!! I should try and finish some of my shelf queens and only hope they turn out half as good...

                Prost
