12 Hour Build, Hobbyboss 1/35 RSOV

[Stikpusher]

I completed this build yesterday afternoon. Built in three monthly four hour Zoom session for a So Cal AMPS online 12 hour build challenge. This is the Hobbyboss 1/35 Land Rover Defender Ranger Special Operations Vehicle, built OOB, aside from swapping out the shovel and water cans for US types instead of the British types that came in the kit. I used Tamiya Rubber Black over a Tamiya lacquer flat black base, and Vallejo color for detail items such as seat cushions, weapons, and stowage. Weathering is AK Pigments, Middle Eastern Soil















Thanks for looking. Comments and critters are welcome.

Absolutely excellent. Black as it should be done. Great weathering and a great subject.

That looks fantastic, Carlos. I’ll have to remember using a black base when using rubber color.

John & Tom, thank you. Tamiya Rubber Black does give a nice faded look when put as a top layer over a normal black base.

That's really cool. And only 12 hours

[Stikpusher]

Thanks TJ. Yup, and actually closer to 11 1/2 hours for actual time spent on it.

Amazing work Carlos - It's always good to see a Landy!

I like the Javelins I used to make those when I worked for Lockheed.

Thank you sir!

Land Rovers rock Stuart! Such a classic piece of equipment, old or new style.

You worked at Lockheed? Very cool! I do t think that I remember you mentioning that before.
