I personally think it looks tits as it is. Adding another roof part might give it a bit of a "frankenstein" look as opposed to the clean look of the canvas top. This vehicle could be in a convoy with a few humvees. It's kind of like the Indiana Jones truck but way better.

Thanks for the compliment. I was itching for an easy project that I could finish relatively quick. We'll see how far I take it.
Im not using the roof of mine, so if thats the way you want to go with it lemme know and I can send the roof to ya
The super humvees have removable roofs with a rollcage underneath, so no waste. I would just put a canvas bikini top on it.
The turret ring I do use, sorry bud. I have mine setup with the roll cage and and gunmount. If I can find another one for the $10 I got this one for Ill send ya the whole turret and cage setup though
Not a problem sir, just thought I would ask.
If I do cut up the roof, I'll gladly take you up on the spare so I can swap the turret between the 2.Looking good mang, can i have it back when your done?
I'll tell ya what, I'll let you keep Cutter with his filecard, the APC plastic roof and the cannon. Deal?
I do have all the needed supplies if you want to make one.

Let's make this happen!

See, if you had come over and not Sailor Jerry, I would have never tried to scratch build it. Atleast I did something productive lastnight.

Does this mean i get to take it home with me when i do.
It really does look good bro!
I wonder if it would just look better without the .50 cal and turret.
Put up a poll or something?

Sounds like a loud no on the .50cal.
What do you guys think about some type of camo pattern on the cloth like the original APC?

No to that, as well.
Incredible work!!!!! That canvas top is great. I would so no to the 50 and no to changing anything about it. Full of awesomesauce!!!
yes, don't put a .50 caliber on it, that way when Cobra attacks they'll be defenseless until they've unloaded their troops. Cool thing about canvas, it doesn't stop bullets. A good RPG or machine-gun strafe and you have a fair amount of casualties.
P.S. I really like the look of the canvas on the APC so far, keep up the good work.

about the cammo, either would look good...it ooks awsome as is, but i'm sure the cammo would be sweet too...and instead of the gun mount, maybe just have the canvas roll up so guys can shoot out of the sides if need be?
So I was trying to weather the top by putting another coat along the bowels, but obviously the extra coat dried alot darker than the first.
That looks effin' great PCS! I like the idea Eddie had of the roll up sides. That would have been a real nice touch. The APC looks much better than the original.
I thought about the roll up sides when I was building it, but it looks really sloppy and amatuer when the canvas was not pulled tight. Destroyed the look of it.
I agree, if i didnt read the post saying it dried darker, i would have thought that it was the desired effect. I love it like that it looks really great!!
I could do some pretty killa shite with that mang, wanna trade?
(photo's, i won't molest it, though, all it would take to make it windowless in the back is some drop down draperies). :0
Gawd, i sicken me.

It's your lucky day cause it's all yours. I had my fun with it.
Plus I don't feel like buying paint to finish the weathering.
