Really liking the paint and weathering process so far.

I’d forgotten we have one of those at Bovington! There are so many vehicles in the VCC.

As we would say, " finished and klaar"! That was an epic journey building the venerable Eland 90 Mk7. For those are interested, I have listed some interesting reads that include stories of the amazing feats achieved by this little vehicle in service and where it still serves.




Now that the build is finished, here are some images of the completed vehicle.




Thanks fofor all the support and feedback.
Now back to the G6 build.:saluting_face:

Started on my display, “Klein Boet - Ou Boet”, for the uninitiated, “Young/Baby Brother - Older/Old Brother”.


It’s a play on words as is obvious in the contrasting difference in size between the two vehicles driven by a generational difference in design requirements.

Anyway, still mulling over how I’m going to do it without over complicating it.

Till next time.:saluting_face:
