Welcome to the forum Tito, I like your Green Land Rover, Can you tell us what wheels you have used and it looks like you have added 'Jewels' to the headlamps, a few more pictures would be nice.

Hi Ghost:

So happy I found this forum. Would like to post more of my handiwork. I did this project last winter. I was inspired by the Gerry Anderson series, which used Matchbox cars, but modified. I figured that since they were in background most of the time tiny details were not important. Speed was important however. I cut the Landie pretty crudely. I spray painted over the existing paint. The spare tires were borrowed from the Leyland pipe truck 10d (of which I have found there is quite an abundance). The "jewels" are from a stick on set for clothing. The figures are from a railway set.

Thanks for your comments.
Cheers
Tito

Thank's Tito, wow, another Gerry Anderson fan, welcome to the club, I think there are a few of us here into Anderson shows and models and if you search for long enough around the forum topics, you will find some Anderson articles, like this one for starters...viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2224#p18345

Yes please do show us some more of your handywork and thank's for the Land Rover details.
