Description

Ever since I was a kid, I've loved Jeeps, and a great deal of that has to do with Jurassic Park.

This isn't the exact model (Wrangler YJ) that was used in the film, but is the Wrangler Rubicon in 1/25th scale, made by Revell.
I painted it up and applied some mud (acrylics mixed with white glue, and pastels), because I wanted to make it look like it'd spent some time Dino-Running.

The decals for the doors and license plate I made by printing off the images onto regular paper, and then mounting them on clear packing tape, some scissor, then exacto knife work, and they were set to glue on the model.

I also made it so the doors open, which was not included in the model. I had to cut the doors off and use some small hinges (from a cheap pair of sunglasses) to make the doors actually function. It was my first time doing this, it's a little rough, but it's something I can work on. That and paint masking.

If I do another, I'll do this to the doors again, and make the trunk area open too.
I'm planning a small fleet of Jurassic Park vehicles, including some security and maintenance vehicles. I just wish it wasn't the dead of winter, I'd love to get the Jeep out for some pictures...
