I´m going to show you the building process of this vehicle, currently serving the Chilean Marines. This light tanks were aqcuired in 1995, currently 12 are in service.
The base kit will be the AFV Club Scorpion 1/35, some minor scratch-building and kitbashing will be made. |

| Building.... | Feb 5, 2006 |
The AFV Club kit its a very nice one. Almost no flash, the fit it´s almost perfect. To build the version used by the Chilean Marines a few modifications are needed.
1) Storage boxes are to be added to the turret. These turret boxes were made from cardboard.
2) Change the original British antennas for US Style ones. These are from Academy's M113 Zelda kit.
3) Add a MAG MG between the turret hatches. This is also from the Academy Zelda.
4) Add the flotation screens. I made the flotation screens from properly cut sprues.
