Decided I would turn this Revell Rubicon Jeep Wrangler into a National Park Service vehicle for my next build!!! Thought it was time to get a MOPAR build on the bench again...

You just have to touch up the edge when you cut them off... easy if you have sharp sprue cutters and a good blade for smoothing the cut...

Nice work there. Was wondering how it looks. I have that kit but haven’t opened it yet.

Thanks Gentlemen! Ed I am enjoying it to the point of thinking I might get another one for a different version... it is a curbside kit but that doesn't bother me at all...

Painting the parts - especially small parts - on the tree is SO much easier. I hate looking for them in the carpet. The touch-up is easy.
