M113 C/V "Ron"


After the group of 6 of these M113 C/V, I got a request to build an extra. The Diesel specialist that rebuild the M113 c/V with welding virtuose Ron, wishes to have one with "Ron" on it. Who am I to deny him this memory of an unreplacable team member and buddy.

And it sports the first layer of green! Shading, decals and detailing are next.

All kit parts added, but "Ron" has a double antenna and the bow plate handle is not in the kit. Everything checked and antenna and bow plate lever and wire holder on the rear added.

All internal fittings are done, external parts start to give it an authentic look. Tracks and lower parts are sprayed dark for the depth illusion.

It takes some sanding and a lot of patience to get the radio and the dash into the interiour. The bottom plate also takes some sanding, and al are sprayed in an of white to create some depth.

A nice neat resin kit with good details. Little repairs and a little sanding, and a smart system to get the interiour viewable in it.
