Nice work, the dirty screen is a cool touch and adds a lot to the build

Thanks DeeCee! I don't expect everyone to be familiar with something that I replicate that came from TV, movies, books, or whatever source that I have originally viewed. Aussie or not, it's ok! I'm sure that there are many shows or movies in Australia that I have never seen or heard of, so that makes us even. It's all good!

Wasn't the spare tire on the passenger side rear on the program??

I love old Jeeps and this looks really good Mike. Something I've learned in military modeling concerning weapons is a little wear on the corners of the metal areas. I take a silver lead pencil to replicate this. It gives the weapon a more worn look.. I used this technique along with a silver dry brushing on the cowl machine guns and wing cannon of my Fw190 D-9 to illustrate..  |

Wasn't the spare tire on the passenger side rear on the program?? Yes, Garry! You are correct. I only had the one Jerry can and the spare tire that came in the kit, so I put them both on the back of the Jeep. I now have another Jerry can and I could paint and install that can where the spare tire is and move the spare to the right side of the Jeep. Thanks Joe for the idea and tip! I had never even thought of weathering the rifles in the Jeep. |

Thank you Dennis! I was lacking on some of the details for this build and I found the one item I needed and everything else kinda just fell into place.

Great job on the weathering. I also don't remember the TV show,but the early 70's were pretty "foggy" for me.

Thank you nyratrod! I guess the early '70s were a bit "foggy" for some folks...

Thanks, it looks great. I really liked that show and the Jeep helped. I wish there was a better DVD available that the "off TV" version I have, it is still better that nothing. The upside was it's replacement, my all favorite and still the best in television; M*A*S*H . . . and lots more Jeeps.
