1/87 Columna Durruti Improvised Armored Car

Following last weeks build, I saw the Anarchist Improvised Armored Car in this thread,

it really caught my interest.

So I rescaled it to 1/87, my preferred armor scale and set about to work
on it. The build was not without its tribulations, mostly on my part. However,
I feel it turned out ok, and I am happy with that.

The only caveat to anyone building this model, watch the front fenders.
I originally placed the flat side of the fender against the body. It didn't look right.
So I did some extra research, and found I had installed them incorrectly. The
long flat side of the fender actually faces outward.
A little surgery and a reprint later, and you might not even notice it.

Overall a great fitting little kit. Lots of little greebles to add if you wish.

And now a little walk around the vehicle.

As every Anarchist needs an adversary, I think I may do the
"Viva Franco" captured version of the Somua Naval Bus found here
