Builder Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Hi All, This is my entry into this GB. I started work on this last week, and was not able to post pictures till now. I will be building the Italeri 1/35 Landrover 109. This is probably as British as it gets, the Land Rover is symbolic with Britain and proudly states "Made in England". Build Plan I will build this into a civilian version, with my own custom paint job. As there are so many variations of this vehicle, I think a customized landrover is not a very far fetched idea. The kit will be built OOB. Kit Detail (from www.scalmates.com) Title: Land Rover 109' LWB Australian Forces Insignias Number: 6508 Scale: 1:35 Type: Full kitIncludes: Plastic sprues, Waterslide decals, Clear parts Released: 2013 | Rebox - Kit seems to be based on Italeri Kit 321 released in the 1990's Box Art: Box Contents: A symbol of Made in England! Build I started this build last week. Here are the build pictures Chasis and body built, painted Tamiya Enamel X-13 Metallic Blue Some marks on the side door needed to be fixed, so these are being filled in using Tamiya Basic putty. I hope you all liked the post. I will be posting more pictures up soon. As always all comments welcome. Edited July 30, 2017 by Builder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Builder Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Here is the next and final build update. This kit was finished quickly. I might have rushed it a tad, as I did damage the doors a bit. It looks like the doors were dented. Here are the updates Tyres painted using Tamiya XF 85 Rubber Black Enamel Hood painted Tamiya XF 49 Khaki Drab enamel Details added to the interior including seats steering, dials, and gears Tyre rims painted and glass added to the window, some more details like frond headlights added and also decals. Side mirrors also finished. The kit is now complete, and here are the near final photos I will have the final kit pics up soon.
