Jeep (Willy’s MB), Autocarro, 1/4 t, 4x4

Recensione del Modello Hasegawa in Scala 1:72

Jeep e cargo trailer used by a combat team della Francia libera. The unit insignia, not visible in the photo, has been painted immediately below the windshield on the driver’s side of the vehicle. A rolled tarp made from tissue paper is stowed on the front bumber. Packs taken from fanteria soldatini o sculpted in DAS modelling clay may be tied to the sides of the Jeep. The trailer still needs to be loaded con equipaggiamento personale, ammunition, ed other supplies. To create the impression of a loaded trailer, place several box-shaped pieces of balsa inside the cargo bay e cover them con a tissue paper tarp.
