Hi colleagues,

This is my very first post here in this wonderful forum, and as a gift I'd like to show you my latest project - the Academy M151A1:








Previous projects will be posted later...

Gabe

Welcome to Armorama. Looks good. Good job on it.

Thanks HeavyArty!
I see you're a member here too! Good to see familiar people!
I guess I should have posted it in the Vietnam forum... oh well.

Hi Gabe , great first build , nice and tidy , great paint . congratulations .

Hi Gabe, really nice looking jeep. One of the best I've ever seen in fact!

Are those Archer transfers/decals on the dash? Also, cool radio, did it come with the kit?

I have the old Verlinden radio set and it's pretty nice.

Good weathering....

Paul

PS I think the seats could use a little more weathering, roughness though...or maybe it's a new jeep!

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your kind words!
The decals on the dash are those that come with the kit.
The radio is Academy's but doesn't come with the kit.
The weathering is rather simple - a mix of soft pastel chalks applied as a powder.

I'm really glad you liked it!

p.s. I'll soon post some photos of my Tamiya's Humvee and Abrams...

Welcome Gabe and nice job.
Great dash board and even the detail on pedals.
