So I kinda did a thing......well a Jeep to be exact. This is the Italeri Ambulance Jeep and it's typical Italeri......absolute crap. Nothing fits at all. I guess this is my Operation Overlord build. It's done and ready for painting.

Your skills have definitely shown through with the build. Looks to me like everything fit just fine.

LOL I will never get over the differences in which people see or experience kits. I have always highly recommended this kit for it's good fit and engineering (considering the age of the molds). It is just one of those classics that everybody seems to build at some time.

Sorry to hear that this Jeep kit is fighting you Mike. I personally do like the Italeri Jeep family of kits.

Man, I just built this and I had next to no issues with anything. It was a glorious and brain free build. I'd build another for sure. Sorry to hear of your issues but it sure looks like you got through them nicely.

Got the Jeep painted and started painting the details. I'm using the AK Real paint markers to paint the details. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/V6bs5Dt0/2024-08-27-10-52-18.jpg)

Mike your bench must be a flurry of activity with all the builds you have going. Great to see this one again! Are you liking the AK paint markers?

Yeah the number of builds going on is insane. But I like it that way. There's always something to work on.
And yes I'm loving the AK paint markers. They've been used on the X-wing and the Jeep that I'm doing. There's so many uses for them.
