Good choice for your entry. I remember the suspension needed a lot of cleaning job. The box chain and balls are nice enough to spare your time with building ET set.
The MG sets will be a great addition.
Enjoy your build.

Thank you Bryan. As the base color was wrong I painted the entire vehicle with a correct reference from Ammo Mig (Real Sinai Grey). I painted the markings too. The registration plates have been applied onto thin plastic card. When they are dry I'll glue them to the vehicle. The antenna is not glued ...

Yes it is Milan. I guess the entry in service of the Namer will see its retirement sooner or later.

Adam,
I ground sand (with a hammer) and applied it over areas dampened with matt varnish. That way you don't have to worry about masking as you apply the varnish with a brush. Of course you need to work on small areas one after the other.

Details painting is done. https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1651.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1652.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1653.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1654.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1655.jpg

Base paint is on. I used Prince August IDF Green. https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1646.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1647.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1648.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1649.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/...

how did you do that? Thank you all. Philipp, I first cut the vertical straps from masking tape and "glued" them onto my cutting mat. Then I cut and added the horizontale ones. I applied a drop of CA glue at the outer "crosses" to strengthen the whole thing and then I gently remove the net. When don...

A lot done since the last time I posted. The build is nearly complete. I still need to asemble the 2 MAG supports. https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1639.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1640.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1641.jpg https://i83.servimg....

Today's progress. The upper hull has been fitted as it does not prevent the good installation of the tracks. On the left side I've added what I believe is the location of a fire extinguisher pull. I also have hollowed the conduits for the wires of the headlights and smoke dischargers. https://i83.se...

Here are more pictures. The both tracks are assembled and installed around the running gear to get the correct shape. They will be removed and painted before I add the upper hull. https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1615.jpg https://i83.servimg.com/u/f83/11/06/57/10/img_1616.jpg The upper ...
