Default green Hummer

Hi together,

I want to show you my new winter project. I give you some pictures, because, for me it's a little bit easier than to explain this in english....

My ambition was, to copy the Ralley-Hummer of Eugen Eble. Eble is a german guy, who restore humvees in germany an drive with his hummer ralleys in for example Tunesien...
His latest Humvee is green, very green.... !!




first, I cut some parts out of the Tamiya body













green !!!!

Great job so far. I bet you need to wear sunglasses when you look at that thing in the sun.
