Hi again

Here's my build progress. First the photo reference i was aiming at:



them assembly





test fitting (some parts glued, some only blu-tacked, figures only placed










well this kit has so many additional items, i think i will not use, because the model gets too overwhelmed with stuff and becomes unrealistic (at least for me)

some bugs of my build:
- maybe the twin vickers gun is too close to the figure heads (the stand was scrachbuilt and the instructions did not show the exact location), i imagine if this place was in reality where it is on this model occasionaly the gents would get a bump from the grip
- browning gun barrel used from kit not AM so not as nice as it could be.
- The condenser is not damaged (resin replacement would be nicer) and
- not sure it this is the best way to scrachbuild bags of stripes from champagne foil as suggested by others on this forum

finally due to stinky build process was forced into exile to another room with much smaller table by my wife. damn

Looks great! I need to get back on mine very soon!

I am not letting this one get by!

Well David, it looks like you're moving along!

I went ahead and joined. The civilian Jeep is a no-go so I'll be doing the Tamiya reboxing of the Italeri SAS Commando Jeep.

I'll have a go with a GPA

A couple of update photo's 1/24 scale Hasegawa Dave

The Revell Mash Jeep is a very old basic kit, I wish I still had the Italeri kit that I sold. I've gotten this far and will be detailing the jeep for a French Hotchkiss version.

Hi All, does a M151 Shimra qualify?
Best regards

"Operational Overview

Any kit that looks like a JEEP, smells like a JEEP, and goes together like a JEEP says it all! No staff cars, Kübelwagens or Mercedes-Benz G4 cars allowed.

Must be Ford Mutts, Willys and JEEPS only. Willys Wagon and Willys Pickups, CJ, DJ, Wranglers and Cherokees allowed. So building a civilian JEEP is okay... if you are brave enough! LOL"

Ok, so here is my entry.

This is a bit of a Frankenstein kit - using the Tamiya M151A2 and parts from an Academy M151A1 to make an IDF version.

I scratchbuit the jerry can holders but still need to do a bit more work before hitting it with some colour.

Hey Jim... have you shown us any assembly pictures?










~ Jeff

Sorry no I haven't. Hope this is ok. I started the build a few days ago and then noticed this group build so thought I'd join.

Going to re-enlist in campaign.
Computer malfunction thought I had lost all photos.
I'm doing a 1/24 Hasegawa. Thanks

Well, not really. Everyone else started this way and it would not be fair to allow some to not.

There's plenty of time to start a new kit, just be sure to post the unstarted kit and progress pics.

Really sorry and having read the rules I've realised my error! I will get another kit (good excuse) and restart. Sorry for the inconvenience.
