Thoroughly blown-up M113

Scale:
1:35
Status:
Completed

A (mostly) scratchbuilt 1:35 scale M113. Yes, really. And not as stupid as it may seem. Though I am starting to doubt that myself somewhat.

The photo at the top of the project is an ARVN M113 that didn’t just get blown up but blown apart, with both sides falling outward and most of the torsion bars sticking up into the air like ribs. The roof is nowhere to be seen at all.
