Airfix Jeep Quicksand Quickbuild.
Posted by PatW on Wednesday, November 23, 2022 2:32 PM

I recently bought the Airfix Jeep Quicksand Quickbuild. Although a 'Snap-Kit' that goes together very easily, It's just gloss back with red interior parts, I found a few old acrylic paint bottles so painted it as such..

More pics tomorrow.

Looks like a very well used low budget Dune Buggy to me!

Nice work Pat!

Hey! pat!

     That is neat. I wonder though, can you get the uniques decals for the back windows you see on Jeeps? That would set it apart from the usual Great builds you do, It would make it greater!!

Thanks Tanker-Builder. Here it's finished!

Yes it's a Snap-Kit build up, and finding a few old acrylic matte colour bottles, I used a brush! I also used a Molotow chrome pen and clear red and orange.

I'd put it into Military but told otherwise so transferred it!

Thanks Gamera, yes the black gloss finish out of the box was too glum it needed sharpening up!
