Old Wombat's ... Old Builds
« on: February 20, 2019, 10:38:11 PM »
This will be my thread for older builds as they are completed ... or as construction resumes.

First up was a "Finished for Now" build from not too long ago (OK, 2 years ago), my ASLAV 1A2, which has just received the missing piece.

Photo's (hopefully) tomorrow evening. ;)

As promised! :smiley:

Pic's of my finished-finished ASLAV 1A2;









For those who are interested, I wanted to keep the anti-tank missile capability of the Marder turret but I didn't want to use Milan, so here we have my interpretation of a mount for a Javelin ATGM.

Cheers! :icon_beer:

Nice! If a chain gun can't kill it, Javelin will!

It does look like a RW vehicle! Is the Javelin from Live Resin?

I couldn't agree more and I bet if you photographed it with a suitable background or outdoors you'd have people thinking it was out of an In Action book. Absolutely fantastic work!

No, it's from the Black Dog Javelin, M136 AT4, Carl Gustav 84mm Recoilless Rifle Set (don't have access to it right now, so I can't give you the number).
