Hi Sunel,
Thanks for sending in your Desert Rats Land Rover article.  I only have armour models during special times on ARC.  I'll e-mail you when your article goes on ARC in the next 14 days.

        Steve Bamford will insert full sized version of photo 01.jpg here 

  This is an old Tamiya SAS Land Rover converted to look like the one they used in Operation Iraqui Freedom. All aftermarket parts that were added like the winch on the front bumper, radio antennas, camoflauge net, rope, straps and buckles, billboard stand, and others were all scratchbuilt from styrene sheet & stock, stretched spruce, solder, gauze, pencil shavings and masking tape. The poses of the figures were slightly modified. The vehicle and figures were all painted with a combination of Tamiya enamel & acrylic paint.

  The Saddam Hussein picture on the billboard and the map on the vehicle were taken from the internet and printed on inkjet paper. The powdery fine sand used on the base was taken from Boracay Island, The Philippines (considerd as one of the best beaches in the world).
