Ever since I was a kid, I've loved Jeeps, and a great deal of that has to do with Jurassic Park.
This isn't the exact model (Wrangler YJ) that was used in the film, but is the Wrangler Rubicon in 1/25th scale.
I painted it up and applied some mud (acrylics mixed with white glue, and pastels). I also made it so the doors open, which was not included in the model. I had to cut the doors off and use some small hinges (from a cheap pair of sunglasses) to make the doors actually function. If I do another, I'll do this again, and make the trunk area open too.
I finally finished the model kit I got for Christmas! It was fun, especially since the instructions were all in Japanese...

Week 2 - Part 3
19 Sept 2017.
Paint preparation and planning - continued.
I've assembled several Gundam model kits before but this was the first time I took it a bit further than just piecing it together. I went in and did some basic paint work and line detailing. unfortunately there is a piece missing from the forehead assembly and one of the "spikes" of the yellow part in the forehead assembly has been broken off due to transportation and storage. I had put this together a while back and moved since then. Just recently I had the urge to do more with it and gave it a proper photo session. Since it is a little damaged, I'm thinking of making it into a battle damaged project in the near future.
The set up I used was 2 desk lamps, a couple of soft boxes that I fashioned out of cardboard and the tissue paper usually used to stuff gift bags, and a flat black poster board that I smeared gold glitter craft glue on.
