shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! don't tell anyone I'm here. It's too leta you sayBig Smile [:D]. I don't like to get this close to earth, but since I'm down here I just wanted to let you know that every week I see these things come through my scale house. Now I am not saying I will be able to do anything, but if anybody is interested in exterior pictures, cough, cough, the next one I see i can ask to see if it can be done. I think it all depends on the truck driver, but if they don't let me I guess I could always write them a ticket[:0]. lol. Anyway I guess I am asking (the short version) is anybody interested. I don't deal with armor usually, flyboy, so I wouldn't know what to take pictures of besides general exterior. I know I can not get on the insideSad [:(]. I do have a M60A1 tank, marines i think, Tamiya, that I need to get together, but don't tell anyone that either. Anyway, I guess just post if you're looking and I'll be sure to bring my camera to work. It's not a garantee I can do it, but the next time I will ask.

ANY pictures of any armored vehicle would be very appreciated by me, for one.

I would definitely appreciate some Bradley pics. I'm building one right now. Just painted the interior. I'm going to detail after I paint exterior. I'd be very grateful for any pics, especially for weathering ideas. Cheers -Spencer

actually, these are factory fresh bradley's, and the barrels are not on them.

I'd still be grateful for some pics. "Every picture tells a story," as Rod Stewart said. LOL I don't necessarily need war torn pics. Shading and things like that always help as well. I might even do this one OTB. -Spencer

Hello Major. I would really like to know the color of the divider for the dual fire extinguisher tanks on the right side of the interior. Is it the same color as the interior or is it that aluminum color like the straps?
Thanks for your help and thanks for the motor pool link. It has helped me tremendously!
Sincerely, -Spencer

Thanks ShermanFirefly, I always love pics. I think they're all helpful, no matter what the scenario is. I'm doing mine OD. It's the Tamiya M2, older version and I'm not skilled enough yet to accurize the kit so it's pretty much gonna be OTB, for now. My next build is going to be an Abrams M1, so I may incorporate it into an OIF dio. I don't know yet. I don't believe that all of the vehicles arriving in Iraq are painted desert colors. I'm not positive though. My father-in-law is Cdr. USN (ret) and he said that they wouldn't be so I'm pretty sure he'd know. I would like some input on that from some of you enlisted folks if possible. Willuride please post some pics if you get a chance. I would be very grateful. Cheers, -SpencerSmile [:)]
