Good day to all fellow forum. I got into this nice Trumpeter model, I can tell from the demo, pride just needs a bit of putty on the top plate where the tower is located, what to do minimal details, to crystals sticking them a reflective film CD, and I did not want to complicate with the interor, some wiring at the bottom which I have yet to do, the parts of the wheels, the suspension are not glued, are shown for reference only model.

Soon progress with painting, this is the easiest model to which I have encountered, has the three words that any modeler looking for: good, nice and cheap.
 
Re: M1117 Guardiann

Thanks guys, some also work better than me, but I appreciate the words, more progress soon, greetings from Mexico.
 
Thanks for the comments, almost everything is of model included the photo etch parts, with a few added styrene sheet, wire and other things. more advances soon.

Ok, this is the latest advancement and continue with painting, only the lower cables and ready and we have to start painting the model phase.
