petebuilt Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Here's some updated pics of my 1/35 LAPD SWAT raid. I have posted this here before, but I felt it was never really completed. Over the last couple of years, I have glanced at it once in a while and thought that it needed something else. So I added a few things. To add a splash of color to the drab blue and grey, I parked a red pickup in the gravel on the side of the house. The lawn and shrubs were repainted. A bicycle, fire hydrant, palm tree, rain gutters, fence, along with a CHP Mustang were placed in the scene. I still have to set the base of the palm tree a little deeper into the ground though. The kneeling SWAT guy in the street was repositioned behind the HUMVEE fender so that he wasn't out in the open to get popped. Two new figures were added, a CHP officer and the SWAT commander, discussing the situation. Pete Brown Edited August 17, 2012 by petebuilt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tank Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I like it Pete. Two things jumped out a me, even with out the light on the CHP car, IIRC they still had roof car numbers. I always thought LAPD Swat had dark blue/black vehicles. Course if you have photos or this is a what if then ignore what I wrote. It appears that CHiP cars didn't carry roof numbers. http://www.specialservicemustang.net/Gallery/CA.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I actually got the Idea from a dio I saw a long time ago on Hyperscale by Jimmy Cancino. I thought it was pretty cool, and wanted to do something similar. http://www.hyperscale.com/galleries/2002/swatjc_1.htm Edited August 17, 2012 by petebuilt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tank Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Pete, It's cool either way. Actually both are pretty cool.
