Picked up some vehicles on eBay, and 4 of my Roland’s from the 1990s.
I elevated the missile launch rails. As I worked on the 4, two turrets popped off, which makes it easier to elevate the rails with two pliers. Some touch up on those.

Image

The 3 from another company where a bit harder, needed to cut a bit at the rear of the rail/arm between turret and the arm thus making it easier to elevate.

Image

A few Gepards picked up, too.

Pickups, add more paint. The LAV cargo in the back had the lift attachment on the vehicle.
I haven’t attached these. But I will leave it on.

The AIST can carry 3 tanks.

Patria AMV, one with .50, the other with KTO Rosomak configuration. I used black primer, probably need to go back to grey.
Vehicles seem too dark. I just painted these.

I will angle barrel lower.

You can never have too many Bradleys! Are those the linebackers with the Stinger launcher on the side of the turret?
