28mm APC (M113)
« on: March 28, 2013, 03:37:14 PM »
Sanbonani nonke

So after six different revisions I have finally got my cardboard tank kit into a format I like.



It's based on the US Vietnam-era M113, with a few modifications (mostly the side hatches) to allow it to be used in more than one game system.





The hatches can all be left open or glued shut.



If the hatches are left off or open there is an option to add a little bit of detailing on the inside.

I've put up a lot  more pictures on my blog here, including some size comparison shots with a more widely known model.

Cheers from South Africa

Thanks Raxx!

I'm going to play around with some conversions over the long weekend. I'll post the results here and on TG :)

Have a good Easter...

Cheers

Very nice.  Might have to get some and hoverize them for my sci-fi stuff.

Well if you hold off for a bit, I am working on a hover version and a flatbed version. I'll post here when I have some ready.

On the facebook page they have a nice pic with a comparison shot of a GW 40k Rhino. Looks like a conversion that should be tried :)
