August 10, 2022---thanks for the video as I have a couple of these kits, along with Italeri's which comes with a trailer. But I'm going to use mine in some zombie/apocalypse dioramas, along with other mil-surplus vehicles such as the 2.5 & 5 ton trucks.

I'm just getting started in this hobby, I have this model, I was under the impression that everything needed a primer before painting? I have a matt white primer I planned spraying on everything, but now I don't know, doesn't look like you did anything like that. Also, I don't have a sprayer, I have to paint everything with a brush for now. Great video, I'll be watching it over and over as I work on my model. Thanks!

Nice job. Started modeling again and this gets me even more motivated. I’m new to the weathering so I really found that interesting. I’m working on this Willy’s model but with the missile launcher variation. Thanks again.

It is very interesting to watch the assembly of this kit, but trying to buy one has, for me, proved impossibly. A kit of one of the most widely- produced military vehicles is very rare.

E-bay, Tamiya willy's jeep is actually cheaper than buying in the shop - as little as £10.99, of course this doesn't include postage.

Great tutorial!; I know this video goes a bit back, but I have a quick question for you: Working on the same kit, primed in Tamiya Fine Grey and painted with Tamiya Lacker spray paint in Olive Drab; can I use now wash paints like Citadel Agrax Earthshade straight into the model?, or being enamel paints they would require a prior clear coat? (Not really clear as the clear spray can is also Tamiya and I’m assuming is also Lacker no?). I do have a hand full of Citadel primer spray in several colors, but someone told me not to use them if I was using the Tamiya Lacker as they are meant for Enamel paint only). Thank you for any help 😊

What deval option did you choose? Love this kit. Whats crazy is most of these were just straight up left in Europe after the war.

Just curious, were you in the Army or other service that goes to the field? I was... 5th Infantry Division (Mech) and 2nd Armored Division from 1988-1995, then back as a contractor from 2000-2015. You go out on one short field exercise when in rains, and things get VERY dirty. Mud everywhere. I've been to maneuvers in Germany (Grafenwoeher and Hoehnfels) during the winter months. Nasty, rainy, and muddy. This is just for 15-30 day exercises. Now go to war for months on end. Yeah, they got dirty, muddy, faded, and beat up.
