USMC Radio Jeep

[MattMcK.]

It's completed! USMC Radio Jeep, Saipan 1944, a piece I may title "Saipan Shave." 1/24 scale, using the Italeri Jeep with an AC Models resin conversion kit that included two figures. The shaving Marine is converted from Preiser 'Adam.' M-1s, pistols, and jerry cans from Shapeways, lots of minor scratch add-ons including most of the loose gear strewn about. Composition was lifted from a period pic. I used acrylic and oils paints, with liberal doses of Vallejo pigments, AK Pencils, and various groundwork products.
