Carlos CisnerosI wish I could do a diorama like that! Just building a jeep here, nothing more.

Carlos CisnerosThank you Joshua. I hear you about not breaking parts! I've done that way too many times...

Carlos CisnerosThank you Neuling! Sometimes a simple project like this is exactly what we need for morale purposes.

Michael Kohlnice Mutt OOB. If I may add: dusty wheels will develop a black tread when driven on tarmac. You can see that quite well on the pic you attached. The little dio crys out for a figure 😉

Carlos CisnerosThanks guys! Yes, I do need a figure for this jeep. But to find one in the proper uniform of that era…

Bruce HuxtableVery nice indeed, Carlos 👍 May I ask about the aerial? Looks soo much better than stretched sprue 😉

Carlos CisnerosThank you Bruce. I stretched some tube styrene to try to replicate the tapered two piece FM antennas in use with the VRC-47 radios. They are then added over a .010 wire center.

Bruce HuxtableThanks, Carlos; you've certainly achieved that look - it's very convincing and makes a big difference to the overall results 🙂
