IDF M50, M4A1 Large Hatch, Op. Kadesh 1956
Posted by Jun Yim on Thursday, January 25, 2024 6:08 AM

A 10 year obsession that turned into an exhausting journey. My Franeken IDF M50 is done. 
Master45top deck
If you are interested:
The turret and most of its fittings are from the DEF M50 set with a new bustle from Z_Dimensions and a 50 cal mount from Live Resin
The hull is the venerable Italeri (I know...) with the Asuka VVSS, air cleaner, the TMD tools, and the AA resin tracks 
Random stowage items are from a Legend IDF set
All othe r clumsy looking parts are scratched

Thanks for viewing, and all the comments are welcome.

Thanks,

Jun

Very nice work!  I'm actually in the beginning stages of building the same thing, using mostly Dragon parts.

Thanks. I've done quite a bit of research myself but it's always good to have another set of eyes on a project.
