Nice resin vehicle with metal figures from Warlord games which I picked up during the black Friday sale.
I used Vallejo Model colour Green Brown for the base colour of the vehicle.

| I wanted the figures to be removable so I drilled two holes in the seats with a hobby drill and glued in placed 2 tiny earth magnets, I also secured thin pieces of metal on the underside of the figures with superglue . |

You've done a great job there John, but I imagine that the cross country ability was pretty poor, looking as it does as a civilian car with some camo paint applied.
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve and yes agree.

That looks awesome, and the flexibility created by being able to remove the figures is a huge plus. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you anthony
DeleteGreat model, John. I really like the weathering you've given it. I bet these took a battering in the jungle!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark, yes the jungle is a harsh environment

Great painting and weathering and looks right at home on that track in the jungle in picture one.

Cracker of a job on the Type 95, John! The weathering is spot on for that jungle setting. While we usually handle full-sized 4WDs and vintage cars over at Cash for Car Brisbane, it’s great to see such a detailed 'mini' scale model of a classic scout car. The magnet idea for the figures is a clever touch!

Superb work on the Kurogane, John! It’s fascinating to see the Type 95 in 28mm—especially considering it was the world’s first mass-produced 4WD. Your weathering really captures that 'jungle-worn' look. Interestingly, a few of these unique scout cars actually made their way to Australia after the war via the Commonwealth Disposals Commission. While we’re usually dealing with modern 4x4s and everyday commuters at Cash for Cars in Brisbane, we have a massive soft spot for Japanese automotive history. The magnetised figures are a genius touch for wargaming flexibility!
