Canadian LAV III (1/50th) Arrived

My first LAV III arrived from the printers at Shapeways and I have to say that I'm very happy with the results.  Pictures and a bit more below.

Here is how the 3D model looks with all the parts
separated (see previous renders here).

And here is the real thing, I used a black wash to
make the details stand out better for the picture.

Assembled LAV III.

I'm going to use a thin washer under the turret to accomplish two things:

1.  Raise up the turret off the hull a bit.
2.  Add some weight to the turret (it does stay in place, just would like some weight on it).

There you have it.  It isn't cheap ($96.89 USD) ... I guess I could cast it if I wanted to, but I only need 3-4 total.  If you want to buy one for yourself I've made it available to purchase from Shapeways here.
