Warrior IFV with a few bits added

[Jim R]

A most successful day's work I'd say.

Fashionably late as usual, nice ptogress

Forgot to add that there are a bunch of parts up in the shed/modelling annex in primer waiting to be painted, so weather permitting that is where I will be today.

Update,

The new net is complete and in place, as are the start of the seat belts. Tried to replicate that silver/grey material used in seatbelts, restraining straps, will look better once it has had a coat of wash...


Drivers seat getting the same treatment.


And there is the office....



Bit more work on the roof interior. The ring in the opening for the turret will have the protective cage fitted to it.


More of the reat compartment...


The rear door has had a new hydraulic ram made from aluminium tube so that the door can be removed and added later in the build once the bar armour has been fitted. All parts are still loose at this time.
And that is it to date,
Cheers
Mike.

Very nice — APCs and IFVs almost cry out for an interior, and this one is looking good

Cheers Jakko,
Getting very near the end for the interior, will be pleased when I can get onto the build phase. But agree that APC/IFV's do look better with the interior.

It’s IMHO the eternal problem of models with an interior: you’re basically building two kits in one, the interior and the rest of the vehicle. I’m always glad when the former is finished and the “real” model can begin

Is a toilet roll part of the normal equipment of a Warrior?
