Thanks Stuart. The Tamiya Vietnam M113 is decent enough, it just could really use replacement tracks. Revell Germany/Italeri makes a decent 113 as well. Academy is superior to both of those. I’ve built all three. I haven’t seen or built he AFV Club or Dragon 113 kits, although I have some of their kits from the same chassis, which are very nice, but quite a bit more pricey.

That looks great, Carlos! Somehow, I missed this one, but it's a looker! I recall when Desert Storm began, my cousin Thomas, the M-113 commander in Vietnam, expressing surprise after seeing some in action in DS. He said, "Damn, they're still using those tracks?!?!"

Thanks Gary! Yup, they’re still is use today in Ukraine even…

Ok, I’m calling this one done. I still need to finish up the crew figures, but the track itself is done





I’ll get some full multi angle views up in a day or two

Great job. Certainly looks lived in. All that gear sure makes a difference. Well done.

Very nice!

Yes sir, that turned out so well, Carlos! The stowed items really do bring a lot to the build, and I love the color the ID blanket provides!

John, Tom, and Gary, thank you guys! I do appreciate your kind feedback.

Fantastic work Stik!
