Ingo FWhat colors did you use for the camo? I was planing to build the ASLAV-PC Phase 3 from Trumpeter in the future but not sure if the colors that Trumpeter provides are correct.

Scott DuttonI will check for you, I often use the mouse house paints but they aren't trading at the moment. I have sometimes mixed my own for the Aussie green and the tan I normally base on Tamiya flesh with some tan. I'll check my notes. Check my other Aussie castoff you will see the colours I speak of, should be this and 1/16 leopard and a m-548 Tillie in this scheme in recent times.

Jay DubyaNice work Scott. Sorry to get a tad off topic, but can you remember if it was a Leopard that stared in the 1980's (???) Australian Army Reserve advert - the one where the weekend warriors catch a yabbie* during a creek crossing? Your work reminded me about that TV spot and it's bugging me because I couldn't find it on YouTube. Funny what sticks in your mind from your younger days (gawd I sound like I'm 90)!!!
* it's a freshwater lobster

Scott DuttonDon't remember the add per se, but would be surprised if it was not a leopard. Centurion. Gone by then and the reserved adds all had the latest toys even if reserves didn't use them. I recall them showing repelling from helo's and not to many would even see a chopper. I never knew anything except yabbies, quenslander so always called that.

Jay DubyaMaybe one of the other Skippys on this site might remember that advert - Kezza???
I'm from Perth originally (so we had marron, not yabbies or redcraw). I saw your comment on your M577 post, were you serving when the Reservists from the 10th Light (sea) Horse sunk a couple of M113s in the Swan River? One of my mates from Uni was in command when he managed to get swamped by a small wave - very funny story!

NeulingVery good build! Interesting to see that the Australian army also uses the German MG 3.

A late (Pre Barracuda so Circa 2000) Leopard AS1 as my favourite callsign (Mine, if I was a tankie rather than recon)
