USMC ECCM vehicle in 6mm

For the Crisis Point mega game last year we were going to use ECCM vehicles as specialist stands with recce abilities.  In the end I used a modified Hummer, but I also experimented with a LAV-25 hull that I had received minus its turret.  I used some modelling clay to raise the hull roof and added some copper wire aerials, one with a blob of modelling clay to represent a rather oversized microwave transmitter.  I think the modified LAV turned out cooler than the Hummer, so thought I'd put up a photo of it anyway.


The look of the vehicle I was aiming for.  An upgraded LAV-C image I found on Google.

A LAV MEWSS vehicle with what looks like a giant TV aerial on the roof as well as a bunch of whip aerials, another find on Google.

Thanks for looking.

  1. You've been busy again I see. I am using your USMC force as inspiration for my own.

  2. Hi Richard

    Actually did this last year, but never finished painting the roof/aerials. I'll have to add some M1s at some point to take them through to the 90's.
