Hi All.
Only new to this forum. Have been modeling on and off for years but the last 5 years i have been back into it. This is a TLC (M548A1) to be correct, which took me about 18 months. I was never happy with it so i kept on changing things on it. We had about 25 of these in my regiment. These were in Transport Troop. Alot of them used to be very modified , the crews were allowed to do this within reason. So please tell me what you think, in a nice way of course. Hope the images work.

Andrew ,
Very nice work , this should be placed on the main strand , under armour , I'm sure you will get a lot more feedback too .
May I take the chance to welcome you to Armorama .

While you are at it post one under introductions where you can tell people a bit about yourself & your modelling interests .
Love Jenny :-)8

Hey andrew That is a great build! I'm not familiar with the vehicle at all, but as Jenny said, post it in the armour allied section, so all can see it
Cheers

Andrew have clamour over a few of these babes - very nice work and definite signs of a man who know his truck track -or whatever :-) :-) :-)
I like the como net especially
Only thing I see is the figure is not up to the actually modell standard - spend a bit of time shading him as well as your truck and I know it will improve an already awesome piece
ps this is from afigure modeller - who see the guy driving the thing first before I see the vehicle so please I always will have the bias toword the Guy first

Ian. I have never been any good with figures. Some of my figures look like they sitting down with a pole right up their C#####R which makes thier eyes pop out. i have tried but cant get it right and the skin colour well thats a real trial and error
it is one of thoes fine arts.
Thats why i joined so as to get some knowledge on improving my hobby.
Thanks for the feed back.

G'day Andrew,
I have only just found this thread.
The Tilly looks very good mate. Try rubbing gently under the front of the hull with fine steel wool. That will give you a few scratches and the like. But dont over do it. what you waht is just a slight colouration (spelling) change. Oh, and the left hand track is on back to front.

Cheers Jason
