looks a very interesting project, and i can't wait to see some action as you work twice as fast as i do :shock: only joking im limited due to health and there is no need for fast builds as i think the story to your build alone is worth the time.

Oh my sweet lord baby Jesus yes this is an awesome build!!! It makes me want to brush the dust off of the one I started a while ago. That figure set is a great set and they'll make the vehicle come to life.

Magnificient work. Now that is nice to lay the eyes on.
I love looking at pieces just before the paint goes on.
All the hard work is there to see. Looks awesome!!!

One question... and I hope that I catch ya before you start painting.
The front right hand wheel.. is it glued on yet?
I ask because it looks as though you've shaved the wheel down to make it weighted but it's a bit out of place.
All the others look great, just that one.
I hope that I caught ya before painting started, or they wheels were just dry fitted.

That is just amazing man!!!! Absolutely awsome. Nice to see that Bronco put in an Rhino anti-IED device. I had to go aftermarket for mine. That and the front bumper!

I decided to get some work done on my humvee!!!
