Great video Mats. Canada almost bought them to fill the Close Combat role with the new Leopards but went with a LAV-III upgrade instead.
The knifes, sanding sticks and glue came out a lunch today. Got the swing arms and drive housing attached to the hull and a put the plug in a large square hole in the hull. (Maybe there is a motorized version in Korea?)
Inner road wheels, drive sprockets and idlers cleaned up.
The outer road wheels come in two pieces, before and after assembly.
All photos taken under the watchful eyes of Moses, patiently waiting for the session to finish so he can have a nap in the light tent.
Cheers,
Rich

Got some primer on the wheels last night before bed. In between Domestic Engineer tasks today I got them painted.
This evening was about 2 hours of trimming, filing, bending and gluing PE for the Commander's hatch.
Need to fill those holes on the inside of the hatch and add a grab handle. The kit cupola has nearly the same detail, but better scale thickness with the PE.
My activities tonight were not nearly as interesting and did not require close supervision. I do make a good chair warmer according to Malaika.
The Canadian Army has been using the BV206 for many years.
