That's cool. I've built a few 1/35 jeeps, including an Italeri but have never tried 1/24. Can you get a figure for it?

As I'm not good with figures I haven't looked for one!

1/24 makes a lot of sense to me. 1/16th requires a lot of work, and as small as jeeps and motorcycles are, 1/35 doesn't do them justice.

I didn't realize there was a 1/24 jeep. Very cool build!

That looks pretty darn good.
Any build issues with Italeri, or is it good to go?

Yes A very good kit, no issues! All vehicle kits should be 1/24th scale!

Did the decals really silver that badly, though?

Jakko, I didn't notice the decals silvering, perhaps it's my photography!
Thanks Ron2. The background is a setting of a garage and house in Europe, perhaps a farmhouse! Made by Scale Prod in Germany!

I had similar problems with the tank I'm building at the moment: the decals silvered, but it's more apparent in photos than on the actual model.
