  1. Thanks Rob and BWM, the dials are easier to paint. I wish they would not detail the faces and just supply dial decals. Ryan
  2. Thanks Peter, all closed up now and I’m addressing seams.
  3. Ok detail painting done and done, ready to close it up.
  4. Okie Dokie, IP repaint commencing! Base colors shot…
  5. Ahhh, had not considered the Canadian climate! Mine doesn’t have leather or safety stuff either.
  6. Hopefully we can keep you occupied with monitoring our modeling projects when you are not monitoring contractors! Ryan
  7. Absolutely, I have also purchased the circle template and will report on its use.
  8. No, they haven't produced the V8 version of the Gladiator yet. I'm sure they will. This is a 3.6 6. Unfortunately, the scoop is only for looks, however in the V8 traditional jeeps they are functional. The taller hood scooped jeeps you see are either Mojave ones like mine or V8 or diesel units on traditional jeeps. Sorry more info than you wanted.
  9. I would have gotten more options on mine but ran outa money... 😀
  10. @MartinnfbNo, leaving the bed open, it has the factory spray in liner. I would strongly recommend the premium soft top like I have. The noise is very similar to the hard top and it only takes 4 bolts to remove it. I think it looks better too, the hard tops seem a little short if that makes sense.
  11. My boy has a Gobi one with 37's on it! I'd go Stingray over Sarge. The Mojave seemed to fit better for me, I cant see myself rock crawling etc.
  12. Got rid of my 2 door Rubicon for this. It’s awesome.
  13. Btw, if you mask a bunch, I highly recommend this template from Infini Model. The well made template features scored grooves on the surface to cut consistent strips very fast.
  14. I painted it the wrong color, plus wasn’t crazy about the grey dial highlights. The goal of the build is to not weather or highlight. I know I’m weird. thanks for chiming in Harv.
  15. More random shots during the cockpit paint process. I always try and mask and airbrush when I can.
  16. No big deal sir, thanks for the interest!
  17. Thanks Mr. Pools. The IP has been stripped and repainted, more pics soon!
  18. This was my first brush with the instrument panel, looks ok but I stripped it! I found out the main panel was to be RLM66, plus I'm going against my highlighting rules with the grey rings around the dials.
  19. @JohnB Been catching up on some builds I have missed, this came out superb. Ryan
  20. A great way of describing the build, a box top model!
  21. The engine has yet to be detail painted, here is the base color.
