                        Hi Everyone, I have just joined, lol. llwellyn Loftie-Eaton from Windhoek, Namibia, (South West Africa) I used to be a Proffesional Soldier in the SADF, and spent about four and a half years in the Operational area and Angola. I was fortunate to have first hand experience working on almost all the mine protected/resistant vehicles, EG Buffel, Casspir and Ratel ICV's and as I am a model builder since childhood, started producing these cars. I Scratchbuild, then make molds and then cast in Resin. Hope to learn from you guys about proper weathering etc. Nice to be on your site. How do I post a pic?

                        Howzit mate!

                        I am just a little south east of you here in "the big smoke" AKA Jo-burg  LOL.

                        When you get round to making models of the Ratel 20 and Mfezi ambulance let me know please. I did a stint PF with the SANDF as a Mfezi commander supporting 1 RDLR and Wits Rifles (mech inf.)

                        As for posting pix, there should be a tutoral somewhere, but I go upload in photobucket and then click on the "get links" , then click on the IMG code, then go to your post-right click and paste.
