Awesome Joel, I remeber seeing this before, this is just too cool,

The amount of detail and functionality crammed into such a small and
contained space is probably record braking IMO, it is just soooo cool, Joel.

This same vehicle that you posted pics of was featured in a issue PM, I hope
to model it someday.

Great work, lesse some more from ya soon!

This is my "next generation" adaptation of the Marine LAV. As if there
aren't enough  variants of the chassis already, I decided to give a go at
building one last year as my second model after finally getting space to
create again.

My version has a 90mm auto loading main gun, a 25mm chain gun and a top
mounted .50 caliber machinegun for the commander. Unlike the typical LAV,
mine has no room for transporting troops. The linkage for the 8 wheel
opposable steering (vs 4 wheel steering on the real one) required that I
relocate the engine to the rear, where it's centermounted on the real LAV.

Some day I'll get this up on my main website and not just on brickshelf...
