Hi all
First I'd like to thank those who gave some answers to my questions about the combination of the M1117 and Blast Models sets.

Here is my complete model. On the Trumpeter base kit I added the followgin items from Blast: sagged wheels, the Rhino system and an upgrade set comprising various jamming antennas and some kit parts upgrade.

I painted it with AK 122 OIF/OEF US vehicle base color and weathered it with a brown wash, some XF-57 and pigments for the dust effect.
The decals are the Echelon reference.









I have posted a complete build article on my site. Enjoy the visit.
