Let's see-approach projects are always the best. Good luck 😀

Thank you, Marc ., fortunately there are some very helping pictures to be found, so just a bit of guessing will be needed 😬

Having real life images is very useful during construction. A little guesswork is always necessary especially with a new vehicle that is not yet in service. I am building the same revell kit myself, but with a CV90 C-35 turret. This is not a real vehicle, but was a possible option to give the Dutch boxers more firepower. In the end, the Dutch army also chose the Pubo.
So I have both the advantage and the disadvantage of building a what if vehicle.

Nice to hear, i will be following! In general the Revell kit has a good fit, let alone a faulty instruction sheet, luckily the Scalemate product page had the solution posted. Stiff wheels is a bit basic, but the price makes it understandable. Can't wait to go on, thank you for commenting!

Looks very interesting indeed. I really like the Boxer and have similar ideas to do in the future (though I am wondering what you want to do with the rest of the Puma?)
But also impressed that you do the interior as well - great job so far, definitely following! 👍

Hello Alexander, Thank you very much! I was lucky to find a rather inexpensive RFM Puma for just 37€, but I must admit—it gave me goosebumps to destroy the hull so dramatically. For now, I'll keep the rest of the kit as spare parts until my 3D drawing skills evolve enough to design something meaningful for it. Thanks to all the great walkaround pictures I found, I'm really tempted to try replicating the engine interior. Thanks again for following, and have a great weekend!

Alexander
One of my ideas would be to make something like a mortar or anti-air/anti-drone version out of it - though that means trying to find a fitting turret or designing it yourself.
Have a nice weekend too!

Oh yes, that sounds very tempting too. Maybe a laser weapon could be part of the concept as well. The GTK Boxer platform really lends itself to a lot of scratch-building ideas, and the Revell kit comes at a very reasonable price. I must say, I was truly impressed by your Thunderbolt project and your detailing artistry—it inspired me to approach the interior on this one with the same spirit, as much as I'm capable of. A real inspiration.

Alexander
Actually I meant the "headless" Puma, but the Boxer is of course also interesting for that. 😄

And thanks for the kind words, I try to put as much detail as possible into my models.

Now I see! Well, to me, it seems that the PUMA has recently fallen a bit out of focus, with more attention being given to the KF41 LYNX. That makes me wonder when—and by whom—a 1:35 kit will become available.
