VAM Spartan in all her glory.

Then I decided why not push for a more realistic looking Spartan aka CVR(T) FV103 with updated Command turret.

A very desirable vehicle at my Command Center, i've always wanted one. Your custom work is looking very promising so far, i've got a good feeling about this one! bounce

Got a little work done today on the Weapons base and mount.

Tick tac tubs and razor covers have their uses, along with good old balsa.
