Thank you mates! - Long time no see Daniel ... welcome back! - Steven, I´m looking forward to your dio. Your detail work is amazing. I built my models here oob trusting in AFVs authenticity concerning the gun truck. So your info on the Maxson M 20 base used for the quad cal. .50 was very interesting for me. As reference material I had used "Gun trucks" by Timothy Kutta (squadron/signal publications), which contains some photos of "Nancy" but no close up picture of the quad base.

I found out that apart from the Dragon M45 there is also a Hobbyfan set, so you can choose to scratch it or just buy a replacement, if you make another M35.

Great 2 sets of pictures & light conditions work! 👍 I think I like the "sharp & sunny" look even somewhat better - I already marveled at your photo-work in the Iraqi dios and this is at least as good - pics 11 & 13 IMHO have an extremely good "vintage magazine" look, feel & coloration - I sit at a 14" notebook now, so full-screen, a few things will always betray the model, but I checked on the phone in parallel and there, especially 13 is so good it really takes time to get behind it being a 35-scale dio...
Which is another way of saying you did a really great job on model and photos... again... 🙂

Neuling, I found out about the trailer in a review of Scott Van Aken, missing-lynx.com/reviews/modern/afv35034.htm. It seems that I even forgot some other extra parts, though these sound like easier to provide. From this review it seems that other configurations were possible.

Strange, when I copy that URL to my browser, the connection is made: missing-lynx.com/reviews/modern/afv35034.htm . I think at the end the punctuation should be dropped. I see it is written by John Prigent, not Van Aken.

Thanks Slavo for your careful study of my album. Ein unbestechlicher und gleichzeitig wohlwollender Betrachter! The choice of the most interesting resp. impressive pictures isn´t easy sometimes. What is most important to me is a realistic look of the model. - Also many thanks to Steven for the link! Unfortunately it shows error 404.

Try and copy the url directly, maybe that works? Or maybe if I repeat it correctly: missing-lynx.com/reviews/modern/afv35034.htm

Bingo! Link works. Very good text and pictures. Obviously they had even the trailer shaft mounted on the truck platform.

The other adfition mentioned, the armored box, can be found on Britmodeller apparently, I'll try to add it with Evergeen. Not going to copy all details...

On another picture I see a pintle mount for an extra .50, so without the ring mounting that's in the box.

Interesting: The reference photos ALTAYA show "Nancy" with the quad still lower mounted on the truck bed than in the AFV kit. - As I had the old kit there was no mount for an extra cal .5o.

The quad mounting in this kit has a fixed turret ring as high as the circular base of the quad, while the trailer adds only 8mm in height.
