I'm taking a break from figures, just long enough to work on a project that's been nagging me for years. Below are the results of a couple of weeks of work on a 1/48 m113ACV using nothing but trash plastics and sprue. The main body is made from a red coated plastic sheet that was a holiday sign at Circuit City. The main portion of the commanders copula is an old aircraft cowling, The wheels are sprue cast from a master that was turn from an aircraft wheel, The armored side for the copula are made from two pieces of a 1/32d aircraft drop tanks, to make a master then two pieces were cast from sprue,also picture is a 1/35th m113acv that bit the dust years ago, a copy of the US Army's -20 manual that has exploded views of almost every part of the M113 n last is a proportional do dad I picked up years ago while in the Army,Have it set to scale down 1/35Th to 1/48 and then using the Tamaya m113 as my main reference. I'll keep you updated as I progress. The final piece will end up in a Diorama, some day
 
 
P.S. don't try counting nuts and bolts, because there aren,t any.
