Looking good ! Thanks for the weathering tips ! And I take back my comment about the clean interior.....what interior ?

Although you could put some bloodstains, spilled coffee, and grime on the JEEP's seats, eh?

This is an incredible build. You have not only made a weathering masterpiece. You have also gone beyond capturing a Mad-Max-ish image.

Great model, from the start

Looking good.

Feel you need to add some weapons, at least to the jeep.

Lookin good mate!!!!!

I've so much on the go it seems that I will never get mine started.

Bloody hell

OK, I'm going to proclaim this done. I will probably go back and tinker some more later, as I was uploading my pics, I realized it would be fun to make some little chrome ladies for my mud flaps

Side shot with ramps in stowed position.

A couple more angles.

Ramps in down position.

some close-ups.

I was going to add some boxes and other misc stuff in the back of the jeep when I realized the chain would be in the way so I decided to hold off. Part of the problem is my mind is already on my next build so it's time to call it done.

This has been a very fun build

Very nice job. Well done.

Still think it could use some weaponry.
Like the chrome ladies and maybe a big tiger mouth on the blade.

But, nice just the way it is.

John Howling Mouse · February 14, 2008, 10:47:57 AM

OMG! I mean, c'mon, this is just unnaturally good.
Ridiculously well-crafted. The modifications, the weathering, the finish...
Not fair! Not fair!

Very nice work mate!!!!!

Nice weathering and it certainly has the beat up look about it.

BlackOps · February 14, 2008, 10:07:47 PM

Thanks to all for the kind words

As I step back and look at this build I start seeing things that I should have done. Like what you say? Well as demented as one starts to get with old age it has suddenly occured to me that it would have been pretty neat to have put folding wings and tail on the jeep and maybe mounted another engine with prop up on the roll bar. Alas, maybe some day, but for now I've got Dinosaur Armor to work on!
