Woo hoo! My UN Jeep is finished! Except for the antenna!
FoW players will recognize it as one of the three jeeps in the Recon Pack. The guy in the back with the radio is a cross bash of a Peter Pig FFL Command, (upper half), and a lower torso from a FoW Binocular Obeserver (like the one in the passenger seat). I will be using the other two halfs for another FFL UN figure on a command basis. The last thing I really need to do is to get the grey piece that I missed with some paint, attach and antenna or two...add terrain flocking, and seal it....and voila!; We now have an observer team from the Worlds most indecisive and ineffective body of government; all ready to drive around and do nothing in the interests of world peace...
Naturally when I finished the jeep, I also decided to put the finishing initial touches to the latest two BARF technicals. I really wish I knew who does their paint jobs...these guys need some serious help...(BARF Technicals are after the UN jeep pics...)
Anyhow, let me know what you think! Enjoy! Comments are welcome!
Ahhhh...here we have two technicals from the forces of "Pending Liberation"...I wonder if Toyota knows what their trucks are up to these days???...
Nice purple door....
Nice work on the UN lettering. For others like me who can't paint well enough to do lettering then print "UN" from your PC. Use paper as thin as possible and simply cut as close to the outside of the UN lettering as possible and then glue it on the white UN vehicle. I've found PVA to be the best glue. You can put this on and over the lettering and then the white background just blends in to the vehicle. When the glue dries it's completely transparent.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliments!
ReplyDeleteI didn't think about the paper lettering. That would actually make it a lot easier...
Thanks!!!!
