This will be my first attempt of a 1/35 scale model AND not an aircraft. 🙂

Guy Rump Author
Chassis put together first, so far so good. Little or no flash. 🙂

Erik Torp
I remember building this kit while serving in Lebanon in 1989. I thought it was awesome back then. Looking forward to see your final result.

Body of jeep put together before attaching to the chassis. 🙂

Thanks for your comment Erik, hopefully I can do the jeep justice. 👍

Many thanks Karel D, Villiers and Erik T for your likes. 👍

Jeep and ancillaries painted with Vallejo primer. 🙂

Thanks Scott for the like. 👍

Bruce Huxtable
A wee classic! Watching with interest, as I'm sure you'll enjoy this one, Guy 🙂

Guy Rump Author
Painted the jeep with Vallejo Model Air Desert Pink. Some of the ancillaries painted a variety of desert colours. 🙂

Thanks for the kind comment and like Bruce. You're right, I'm enjoying this model so far. 👍

Some chipping and scratching. Jerry cans added to the rear of the jeep. Underside of the jeep started to colour with black where appropriate. 🙂

Guy Rump Author
Some more jerrycans added to the front end of the vehicle. 🙂

Andy Ball
Macho men in those desert Jeeps. In pink. 😉

Guy Rump Author
Added spare wheels and sand channels to the rear of the jeep. 🙂

@Andy, LOL, it does make you wonder....

Thanks Alex R and Andrew B for the likes. 👍

Back of the jeep filled up with ancillaries. Cam net added to the front left hand side. Gun mounts added. Sprayed with gloss varnish so I can start the washes. 🙂

Thanks Andy B for the like. 👍

Guy Rump Author
Umber wash applied and then matt varnish on top. Next will be the weathering and final additions. 🙂

This denotes a Willy's Jeep used by the SAS in the Western Desert of North Africa in 1942.

I weathered the vehicle with a mix of desert sand and light yellow ochre, using a mix with thinners to apply to under the wheel arches etc. I then added the steering wheel etc. and the weapons and added a dusting of desert sand and light yellow ochre brushing the loose powder around the vehicle.

Now completed, I really enjoyed building this jeep, my first 1/35 scale vehicle.

Thanks to Patryk S, Daniel K and Simontie for the likes. 👍

Great effort for a first 35th!

Thanks for your kind comment Andy, it was good to build something different and also try out some other weathering techniques. 👍
