Cartel armour

[chrisonord]

The Nicaraguan cartel in my themed builds have some ingenuity about them when it comes to armour, as a lot of it has been swiped from the scrap yard or a museum somewhere. The armour in these builds are no exception, as some of it dates back to the late WW2. All of the builds are my usual 1/72nd scale and some are not quite as they should be

Cheers Chris,
I have been steadily chipping away at my stash of cartel armour for a bit now, still got a few more to go at and to fiddle with

Couple of new ones that may tempt you as cold war armour and packed two kits to a box - A new US Sheridan in the works and a recently released BRDM-2

they both look very nice additions to both sides of my cartel/honduras armoured brigades, cheers for those links Geoff. The Sheridan is very modifiable, and I will be sniffing some of those out for sure.

Thought they may be right up your street, keep an eye on the Hobby Easy website to watch when its released

Oh i adjusted your photo links to get them to display on the forum, some heavy armour there and it looks like the BRDM-2 would fit right in

Cheers Geoff.

Tats a cracking collection Chris....!!! Looks like you need some SPAAG's and SPG's.....can't wait for them.....

[chrisonord]

Cheers H, I have 2 KVT-KV tractors, that will either become missile launcher vehicles or SPAAG's or one of each. There is enough room on the deck for something, and I have some zvesda 37 mm soviet AAA guns that I could put into a gun system of some sorts on one.
Cheers,

Received the BMP1 and BRDM2 from HobbyEasy and yes they will be right up your street chris for Cartel armour especially as its 2 kits per box, hopefully they will do the BTR-70 to go with them for that 70s early 80's Cold war period

When funds allow I will have to have a look at some of those Geoff, APC's and the likes are something that will fit in well with my cartel builds
Cheers
Chris
