Uro VAMTAC St5 Bn3 1:16

[toniolillo]

As the title says I have begun to realize this model, it is a Spanish vehicle used by our military and many other countries , similar to the Humvee. The model is going to perform with maximum shielding, I put photos and comment

Above you can see normal version

In this one if you look on the side and takes the extra shielding in place, this is the version I will make

This is the rc vehicle chosen for this occasion, it is a 1:18 scale buggy, which I had to modify the length of the chassis, the widths are almost perfect, also it has a perfect wheel for this particular model

I made a template for the sides to scale to have accurate measurements

You see above I have already cut the sides and have given them the way that leads the actual vehicle

GREAT build thread as always! Always nice to get to see the real thing that you are modeling. Nice to see who you are talking to also:):) Can't wait to see it finished.

[kaptain Jack]

Did you take it for a spin around the block?

[Kaan]

Great built, that Tamiya hummer looks nice as well!

[frizzen]

That's awesome looking. I hope you got to take it for a drive while you were getting lots of detail pics of the real one

[tc1cat]

Any updates??????????

[toniolillo]

Hello, thank you, @Kaan: It´s not the the Tamiya Humvee, this is a 1:16 Humvee toy.
Let me drive this vehicle for a while, to be a very large vehicle driving very well, yes i have new progress:

A lack of details about the roof is finished, My wife is translator of English and is teaching me that I can communicate with you perfectly, I beg you give me time so I can learn well, thanks again and sorry for my English once more

[tc1cat]

Don't worry about your English. Between your GREAT pics and your narrative, most should get your ideas. You actually write better than some of us Americans!!!!!!

[frizzen]

Relax, your english is thousands of times better than most of our spanish!

The whole body looks amazing. On the roof details, am i seeing the turret mount rotating?

[toniolillo]

Thanks for everything, I have now dedicated to making the front seats as they are the only ones who are from outside, and put the driver.
@frizzen: I made the turret to rotate and can be removed to access the interior and to remove the body, also in the future you can put a servo to rotate, I put tomorrow more photos, greetings and again thank you very much

The steering wheel of a Land Rover Toy, as you see I have had to remove the soldier legs to put in place
http://i67.tinypic.com/b497vp.jpg
As you can see barely visible from outside the vehicle, so I'm not going to put less stress with the seats, once placed inside paint it

I hope you like, a greeting friends

[toniolillo]

Hello today I caulk all the imperfections he had, I've also made the shovel holders

Outstanding details:eek::eek::eek:
Your attention to detail puts most if not all of us to shame. Really like where this build is going! It is going to fit right in with your many other builds.
