Chuck Most Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 ... it's a Case VAI, courtesy Thunder models, via Airfix. It's rendered in 1:35 scale and offers the option of a military unit or a civilian Case VAI. The kit has some really nice photoetch, like the side step plates (which unfortunately have no positive location marks... you just kinda have to "feel around" for where they sit on the transaxle), and radiator fan (totally hidden by the shroud on the finished model. Rare for me, I kept it totally box stock with a weathered finish. I had planned on going with Case Flambeu Red (Model Master Chevrolet Engine Orange is a decent match) but liked the rusty basecoat so I kept it like that. Eventually I would like to tackle the version with the loader. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
