(Pics) LCM 3 and JGDSF's LAV

Thanks a lot for more kind comments!.

Model Museum, if the instructions were in writing then there was a high probability that my modeler didn't read them, he just followed the graphic instructions.

MarianLH, it's my pleasure to know so. You may order one or two more boxes because this kit can be built into 3 versions. I'm thinking of another version too.

One of the things I like about poking my nose in here is that I discover interesting models I didn't know existed. Like Tamiya's LAV--never heard of it half an hour ago, and now I just ordered one. Thanks, Model Maniac, for introducing me to this kit.

Once again, some spectacular work. Your collection just never ceases to amaze.

The pics of the real thing I saw showed a faint bluish tint/coating, just checked again with the instructions there they say to tint the clear parts(windows) with Tamiya clear blue. Maybe some form of protective coating anti-laser or similar.

Either way the build is very nice and I congratulate the modeler on it..

Many thanks for all your kind compliments!. Today happens to be the 6th
birthday of my Website and Model Maniac pages. I can't believe I've come
this far, taking almost 2,800 photos over the years. Thanks to all encouragement that we (my modelers and I) received from many a modelers, most notably on this site!.

Romelio, the Mexican army also have a lot of these vehicles?. Very well, I think
it's a very nice 4x4 with better armor protection and fuel efficiency than the US Hummer. You don't have to scratch build the whole vehicle, just the body part to replace the two backdoors, I think.

Great Models ...Model Maniac about the Tamiya's JGSDF's Light Armored Vehicle did you know that Mexican army have a lot a of these vehicles? but in two doors...that's my next proyect to scratch build one to make a Mexican army vehicle.

excellent my friend, once again!!

Amazing as always and in only 16 days! I couldn't do it in 16 months.

Great builds.

One question regarding the JGSDF's LAV(currently building 2 of those) it appears that your windows are lacking the blue tint(X23), might be the photos.

If the tint is not there, may I ask if it was by design(new additional info about the actual deployed vehicle, etc), all I am going by are the kit Instructions.

Wow, another set of amazing works. Thanks Model Maniac!
