I also resumed work on this beast today, after my time off/away. I applied the decals… all three or six if you count that I had to cut them in half and stack them…. These things have minimal markings, just the serial numbers… although during OIF 1 and the drive to Bagdhad they did have some tactical numeral applied as well… still trying to figure out how to do those…
Serial numbers are on each front 1/4 and on one of the rear doors… blink and you might miss them….

Damn I like that vehicle. Legal for home defense in AZ?

Everything is legal for home defense in AZ…. We no longer live in the Demokratik People’s Republic of CA…

Thanks Chris!
Today was some good progress. First up I airbrushed on a flat coat. Then I started detail painting items, removed the masking off of the turret windows, and lastly added the air ID panel onto the rear deck…
A few more bench sessions and I should be able to finish this one up

Had a day off today, so I was able to take advantage of that and get in some bench time on this. And I was able to reach a major milestone by getting the wheels attached finally. I also started weathering the hull before installing the wheels.
more to come soon….
