Hello,
So I have a thing for Stryker vehicles, that and HEMTT, LVSR, M1 Abrams ect.
I find it fun the design and build all variations of a vehicle to see the evolution.
So here I go when I noticed the Stryker’s…
This is the original stryker derived from the Canadian LAVIII (just found that on Wikipedia), I don’t know how many versions there are, I counted 14 different plastic kit versions, all based on the original Stryker:
And there is an upgraded version, they changed the front and back, and the bottom.
Don’t know the internal works, so I just go based on what I can see.
Since you can’t see the bottom I didn’t bother to design that.
Galactica already designed these parts:
But I have my own printer and CAD software, so I design and print my own stuff.

Some adjustment might be needed once I get building.
Last night I noticed the Stryker A1 vehicles.
I already have the front, back and sides, but the engine part is completely different.
So I grabbed some cold cola from the fridge and there we go.
2 hours later, I came up with this:
Sand the correct area clean on a Trumpeter Stryker and it should fit.
Lets have a look how this prints today:
Now I have to order an other M1126, thank the good folks from China the Trumpeter kits are not that expensive. So 3 versions in the pipeline: Original Stryker, Improved and Double V Hull.
