wip- Hunting Jeep

Heres something i have been working on,
a 1977 Jeep CJ-7, making it into a hunting jeep

I cut off the rear fenders, and the winch has real steel cable in it, " i used steel fishing line leader"

this is where i am at so far.

Wow!
Amazing work on the details, i love the little roof with the attachment wire, the steel winch, the gorgeous weathering!

You wouldn't by any chance know why they cut the rear fenders off in real life? Just wondering

Re: wip- Hunting Jeep

Wow, that is pretty amazing weathering. Can you please give a little insight on how you achieved the rusty look?

Thanks guys!
Well Hunting Jeep wouldn’t be complete with out a rifle.
So I made one from aluminum tubing and a popsicle stick.

Re: wip- Hunting Jeep

Looking most excellent! Very nice details and scratchwork. I like how it's subtly done, not over the top. Extremely realistic.

Re: wip- Hunting Jeep

Great work on this. The extra little touches really add life to this. The rifle is excellent as is the gear in the back. Quite a different direction from the fantastic nascar builds you usually show us.
