discussion 1/6 scale Willys jeep, views?

[Guest]

I've found this kit on eBay, it's a Dragon kit, but quite large scale, which really interested me to do some really nice detailing on,


Has anyone had experience with Dragon, or this kit?


It's up for £90 or just shy of,


Thanks

Dave I love Dragon kits! They're usually very detailed & although often complicated, still a joy to build.


Do watch out for the instructions though - dry fit everything!


Polux build a 1/6 Dragon kit ..either a Panzer I & II so he'll have 1st hand experience of this brand & scale. There's probably a thread on it on here - back in 2009/10 if memory serves.

This build is one of my faves!!!


Once built is really impressive, anyway don't expect many details...(it hasn't engine), and the lower side is really simple.


The strong point is the paintwork....at this scale you can do a great work!


I really recommend it

WOW, thank you Pollux, appreciate the help,on that. Do you think the price is about right?


Shame about the lack of engine, on a model this size, that's almost blasphemy!


I notice your build pictures show what looks like Eduardo PE stuff?
