Ok, try not to laugh to hard! But here is my first build in 35+ years. After buying a real 2017 Jeep Wrangler (Willys Edition) back in november I wanted to build a model of it.
And now i find myself hooked on it all over again...hopefully my skills will get better with each build :)

What exactly is it we should laugh at? Looks good for a first build in 35+. You certainly coul have done far, far worse lol.
Welcome aboard!

Hi,
That looks great.

Thank you everyone for the encouragement ! Still not happy with it but i can do it over (( I bought 3 of the same kits to do different versions )) Two of the biggest issues I'm having now are my eyes ...so I'm getting better lighting and Glasses. And the other is my hands are not as steady now as they were.
Far better than my first one back in 92. Good job.

Quite a few of us have the same problems. Shakey hands is a common problem. Rest your hands on the bench while working. Eyesight failing, cheap fix is drugstore reading glasses. A little more expensive fix is Multi-Power Head Magnifiers. Hang in there. The more you build the more ways you'll find to overcome problems.

Thank you for all the nice replys everyone! Still not happy with it, but it will go on display with the the other ones I do. Were in the middle of moving right now from a apartment into a house so not much modeling being done right now. And i cant belive how much i miss it! Below is the my next project started before the move. It's a WWII Willys Jeep.

I bought this many years ago, in the early 2000s, when they reissued it as the old Hogan's Heroes Jeep. Decent kit, but that one forgot to include the spare and you had to send away for it.
