Eli Van Helvoirt
Wrightstown, Wisconsin
Thirteen-year-old Eli did a bang-up job on his Tamiya 1/35 scale Willys jeep. The radio, dash, and fire extinguisher came from an Eduard detail set, and he packed the back with stowage from a Tamiya M4A3 Howitzer. Eli base-coated the jeep Tamiya NATO Black and then topped the body with Olive Drab. Tamiya Khaki Drab colored the seats. He picked out details with black Tamiya Panel Line Accent Color and dusted up the tires and lower body with Tamiya Weathering Master pigments.
