    Great job, Pat. It's the LoneStar's grandfather!

    Not another OOB build? You going to be ok? ?

    Nice idea to painting the inside of the sleeper black. Never thought of doing that.

    that's one tough looking 353. Nice job.

    Great looking Transtar. It really looks the part. I have these decals, too; but I'm planning on using them on the C600.

    Everything is looking really nice. I like you interior.

    That's looking really nice. There sure is a lot of detail in these 1/35 armor kits.

    Very nice. Photos look like they could be in a Hyundai Santa Fe brochure. Well done.

    Your interior really came out great. The black with the blue is quite striking. Did all Raptors have the interior color accents that matched the exterior color like that?

    Nice job so far.

    Actually, I don't; but I believe I know to which you refer. Wait, you were in the Army? What unit?

    That blue looks really nice.

    You're right. Some of those decals are strange. The data plates, tire pressure, dash gauges seem alright. Those bumper numbers look kind of strange. I think the "SET ENGLEMANN" is supposed to be SGT or SSG. Our unit put the driver's & vehicle commander's name on the top windshield over their respective seats. Many of the small decals look ok. Where is the CARC decal supposed to go? If I remember correctly, the stencil said CARC with a date below it to know when the vehicle was CARC (Chemical Agent Resistant Coating) painted. Were vehicles CARC painted in the Coast Guard?

    Looking really nice. There seems to be a lot of detail in this kit, and I like your strap for the water can. If I were to make one small critique, it would be that the 8V92T should be painted the same OD green that would be used on the exterior of the truck. These trucks were painted all one color at the factory, then the black & brown was added. When they were shipped to the desert, the 3-color camouflage was painted over in desert tan. The windows & engine were generally masked off & the entire truck was painted. Just thought you'd like to know.

    Nice looking Blazer. Well done.

    Looking nice. How different are the Scenes Unlimited tires as opposed to the kits?
  24. Jim B
    There are lots of aftermarket decal manufacturers for 1/35 armor models (that's where the money is), so I'm sure you'll be able to find something. Archer Fine Transfers & Echelon Fine Details come to mind. Post a pic of the Trumpeter decals. We have a bunch of "old" Army guys here, so maybe we'll be able to help.

    Looking really nice so far.
