[@waltervanvooren994]

You realy bring these old kids back to live!! They look great even in 2024👍pitty they are so hard to find now days😢

[@ElTeesModellingCorner]

Very nice build! I used to build these kits in my early to mid teens back in the late 70's/early 80's, so this video brought back some fond memories. At that time though my builds weren't as good looking as yours, but hey... fun times anywho... 🙂

I think the bit on the front of the jeep is a water condenser

[@creativetimewasting]

Yes, I think you are correct an oil cooler would be a pipe/matrix effort 👍

[@JohnHallett5846isaPrick]

​@@creativetimewastingBecause they are Kiwi Soldiers it's probably a thermette

[@randytaylor1258]

Yes, it is a water condenser. Radiator overflow goes into the can where it is condensed. Another Radiator cools, it sucks the condensed water back into the radiator so water us not lost.

For the sign you could find a photo of something from the period, cut and paste in any document editor, then reduced to the required size and print out. I use this technique for maps in dioramas, or for navigators stations in aircraft.

[@creativetimewasting]

Handy tip, cheers 👍

Nice touch that one..

[@lancerevell5979]

I've done the 1/35 Tamiya kits of these two vehicles, but haven't found the 1/76 Matchbox kits. They are scarce here in the US. I have a few 1/72 and 1/76 vehicle kits, but they can be challenging with 67 year old eyes and 2XL size hands. 😅

[@fufutooky3582]

Not sure, but doesn t Revell Germany have rights and re issue every now and again.

[@randytaylor1258]

​@fufutooky3582 Yes -- they're releasing some of the Msrchbox kits including that bloody great 1:72 Corvette.

[@andrewmaville7797]

A cracking build - those things are small

[@stuartmiller8053]

excelent

[@Hasdac]

I can't bring myself to build my matchbox kits they seem to be holding their value.

[@fenman1954]

A lot are being reissued by revell

[@anjkovo2138]

👍👍

[@t55a2]

Decent turnout there

[@akula9713]

Why do you use oils? Instead of just thinned acrylic paint? I’m curious. Do they have an advantages?

[@creativetimewasting]

@@akula9713 oil paints I find have finer pigments and behave better than acrylics. I do use Tamiya panel line as well as Citadel washes too 👍

[@VileTraveller]

@akula9713 oil paints give you a longer working time, too, which is handy for washes - you can buff some bits, intensify others, etc.

[@randytaylor1258]

You can use oils for washes over acrylics, and not disturb the paint below.

[@Hasdac]

I got two off ebay, not mint mind, 30 quid plus deliv3ry

[@NielsenDK-1]

Oh my....This kit could sold on eBay pay your rent for a year😂

[@t55a2]

If your rent was £25 a year, maybe

[@creativetimewasting]

Close, I got this one on eBay about a month ago for £22 👍

[@t55a2]

@ Good price if free post

[@NielsenDK-1]

​@@creativetimewastingYours is the Revell boxing. The real deal goes for +£50.

[@NielsenDK-1]
