I'll start with this pig of a kit; the Galaxy Hobbies M-1240 M-ATV. This beast fought me the whole time, so it's not as good as it could've been. I'm just so tired of dealing with it that I added all the last pieces; gave it a rough dusting and called it done:
Next up is my ACE 1/72 scale French AMX VCI personnel carrier. I'm not as thrilled with this as I hoped to be, but it looks good enough. My French Army has now taken delivery of this:
Following that are my two Aoshima 1/72 scale Japanese personnel carriers. I didn't weather these with any dusting or anything; I just liked them the way they look now. They were cleaned up for a parade; that's my story and I'm sticking to it. I may do it later, but who knows?
This first one is the Japanese Type 96 Wheeled APC A, used by the regular army:
...followed by the Japanese Type 96 Wheeled APC B, used by the Rapid Deployment Force:
Essentially the main difference besides internal stuff is the -A model has the M-19 grenade launcher and the -B model has a Ma Deuce. Also, the main commander's hatch when opened has that lift up glass enclosure on both vehicles. That is why one has it and the other doesn't; I wanted to show the hatch both opened and closed.
Moving on again, I completed my ACE 1/72 scale Italian B1T Centauro. I'm not too sure what the difference is in the B1T over the B-1, but someone said one was longer for some reason. Anyway, here it is:
Finally, my sixth armor model for this week is my ACE 1/72 scale Israeli Centurion Sho't Kal Alef. I am quite happy with this one and thrilled to have another Centurion variant in my Israeli Army:
And there they are, my last armor completed in 2021. Now to go post my year end review.
Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.
