Default 1/48 Tamiya Humvee!!!
This kit took me roughly 3 hours to complete to this point. The drive-train is impressive.

The kit fell together. I have all the sub-assemblies complete and it is ready for paint.

I also set up my Tamiya studio for the first time and experimented with it. The one shot of the kit and boxes is blurry, I only took the one and didn't notice until I uploaded them. And I included an image with it's bigger brother in 1/35 scale.













Comments on the images would be much appreciated. I took most without a flash.

Pics look good Gary! Nice to get that kit without having to buy another F-117 in 48th scale, huh?

Has anyone made an M1114 conversion for this kit yet? I know they make the M1151.
