Looking forward to seeing the progress on this Carlos.
BTW, I saw the post you made on FB about the new tooled M577 - that looked very interesting.

Re: Dragon 1/35 M270 MLRS
The new tool M577 looks freakin’ awesome. On another site I saw more photos and this will have the full interior for the driver and command areas. I didn’t notice if they included the engine compartment as well. But man it is light years ahead of the ancient Tamiya offering.
I’ll be getting back on the MLRS in the next week or so…

Re: Dragon 1/35 M270 MLRS
Woohoo! More progress! Saturday was AZ AMPS meeting, and yesterday was IPMS build and bull, so I made more progress on my MLRS project. I finished up most of the cab construction, exterior and interior.



I’m all ready to start airbrushing on paint now on the cab interior….

Re: Dragon 1/35 M270 MLRS
Today I had a good airbrush session and was able to get some base colors on the interior and part of the exterior, as well as getting some detail painting started in the interior


Not too much more to paint before I can get the cab assembled….

Hi Carlos, yes, I’ll second Tom: looks good! What paint and what color did you use for the interior floor and walls?
Make more models!

My first thought was Gunze White Green but I could be wrong.
