Tamiya, 1/35, IDF, M577 “Mugaf”
Hi guys, this is my Tamiya M577 in 1/35 scale. colors and weathering effects by Ammo-Mig. with tons of modifications, most of them are scratch build.
I was the commander of this M577 "Mugaf" in the IDF, in a 175 mm self propelled guns battalion N0. 55, battery A, for almost 2 years during the late 80's. so it was like my second home those years:)
Happy day everyone!

Great looking '577, Allon! Yours looks like any one of a hundred I've seen. Different lettering, though. Tremendous detailing, Sir!

A unique and superb build, Allon. Hard to tell the model from the real deal.

Like Jeff, I've seen a few of these too. You guys had a lot more room inside these than we ever had inside our tanks ! Our "communication" crews even slept on cots inside of them. This is something you could never do in a tank...
Your build looks wonderful. I like it a lot !

Beautiful work Allon! Love the detail and weathering. I wasn't very familiar with this type vehicle, so was great to see your rendition of it.
