Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

U.S. Military M1078 LSAC LMTV - By Radisson McGuire


This model started out as a Trident M1078 LSAC LMTV. The model itself is almost all resin. Only plastic parts are the chassis, small details and wheels. After cleaning the truck of casting flash, Radisson McGuire added a Kniga gun turret to the cab. When assembling the truck he realized the gas tanks and air tanks need to have armor plating on them also so he cut styrene and glued into place. The truck was painted using a number of paints. The base coat is Krylon camouflage tan spray paint. Radisson then hand painted the additional Tamiya NATO green, black and brown colors.
