Hi All,

I will be building the Italeri 1/35 Landrover 109. I started work on this last week, and was not able to post pictures till now.

Build Plan
I will build this into a civilian version, with my own custom paint job. As there are so many variations of this vehicle, I think a customized landrover is not a very far fetched idea. The kit will be built OOB.

Kit Detail (from www.scalmates.com)

Title: Land Rover 109' LWB Australian Forces Insignias
Number: 6508
Scale: 1:35
Type: Full kit
Includes: Plastic sprues, Waterslide decals, Clear parts
Released: 2013 | Rebox- Based on Italeri kit 321 from 1990's

Some marks on the side door needed to be fixed, so these are being filled in using Tamiya Basic putty.

Oh!!!! You have all my attention!!!! :D :D :D

I love the blue colour that you choices. I recommend, once painted, to add some white oil drops to recreate the habitual sun blanched effect on those farm vehicles.

Thanks Polux mate, I completed the vehicle before I saw your reply, so it is done now. I have kept it as clean as I can, as this is the look I was going for.

Here is the next and final build update. This kit was finished quickly. I might have rushed it a tad, as I did damage the doors a bit. It looks like the doors were dented.

Here are the updates

Tyres painted using Tamiya XF 85 Rubber Black Enamel
