I used the kit of Dragon (7515).
The actual idea was to represent the "Elefant", but this kit has [...]
Greetings to all forum members.
Today I want to show you the last military vehicle I could finish. It is a M3 Scout Car from HobbyBoss in 1/35 scale.
It is a kit known to all. It has a quite correct detailing, with a very good fitting of [...]
