Here are some great sources: http://starshipmodeler.com/rv/ps_apc.htm A great guide to building a super detailed M577 APC, The author even sources components from kit bashes. Fully detailed interior! From Jbot decals in Canada..alternate APC and UD-4L decals ..1/144 to 1/35th scale http://www.jbot.ca/space/aliens1.shtml http://www.jbot.ca/space/aliens2.shtml I'M planing a detailed build on both. With the Dropship; I'm on the fence as to what configuration to build it in...I'll have to find another... ![]() More to come... Semper fi Doc Vito |

Thanks for the links Doc. Starship modeler looks like a pretty awesome site. Great Sulaco photos here. The decals are nice too, but I'd be wanting to make them as they were in the movie. The kits I have are the APC, Dropship, Sulaco and Power Loader. The first three are unbuilt, but the Power Loader has been half-built in it's box for 15 years with an bad paint job which I'd like to undo. It's also missing a small part, so I need to figure out how to duplicate it from it's twin at some point. ![]() |
