Fantastic job so far on this built Spud. Really an A-1 effort! ;D

 

[spud]

alrighty build is done, few bits and bobs left off because i know ill snapp them, airels are just sit in place for now,
all the new Shinys are from Rbmodel.















its going to be a crying shame to paint this because it looks so good with all the shinys.

So next pics will be of some paint,

Beauty Spud!!! Spud-er-ific!!! I tis a shame to paint!!! But what a joy it will to weather!!!

 

[spud]

[Myke]

Not gonna lie Spud - I'm jealous of your extra PE - especially the hooks. Mine kinda suck in plastic.

Looking sharp mate.

 

[spud]

[NecronautDrummer]

Very cool, spud! Can't wait for paint!

 

[Rentar1]

Heck of a job so far Spud. Keep it up!

Looking good!!

I recognize the .50cal parts as I am doing the same with the .50cal on my M51.

The damn rear sights though. The rear sight housing isn't a problem, but the actual site that goes in it.

I had 2 of the RB dress up kits and both rear sights went flying. Couldn't find them...so of course, I cobbled together a reasonable facsimile to replace it. Get it done, couple of hours later I find one of the rear sights sitting right in the open, in plain view under my nose.

Sometimes I really hate Murphy!!

Funny the way it works hey Scott M.?

What is that .50's dress up kit called again?

The heat radiator is wicked! All brass? Wow! Those D rings are nice to! Who makes them again?


That is going to look Awesome in Green!

Great Assembly buddy!

 

[Eastrock]

I envy you, Spudiculus!!! RB models looks great on the kit... is there a GB run without the paint? ;D

 

[geegad]

Wow that looks awesome spud truly if it looks like this pre paint I can't wait to see post

Lol scott I dropped the rear ring of the .50 cooling jacket yesterday, man was I pissed because it's so small but I found it on the carpet with some serious luck, lol ya the rear sight is a bit of a screamer I left out the sight this time because thy have a digital one now .

Norm the hooks ariels and ariel mounts and .50 upgrade are all rbmodel, and very cheap. Look under the barrels section and the .50 is near the top

My brass side bins arrived.... I prime red it last night. darn ah well they will go on my next Stryker

And thanks guys I really had fun building this one
