looks like he painted the hood gun black, did some detailing work inside the cab, painted the cable and the straps on the sleeping bag, and painted the gas cap.

Looks nicely detailed though.

JBYRRD,

The dash gauges are all painted, hood machine gun black, straps on the pack on the hood brown, and silver worn detailing on the rear gun, black out in the wheel holes between the spokes, the gas cap black, and silver winch cable.

The older Joe vehicles really are a modelers dream. The molds have tons of unpainted potential in them. That dash board is something that could be straight out of a Revell kit. You did a nice job making this already outstanding vehicle look even sharper.

Pluv,

Thanks!!!

This vehicle has beat out my long standing favorite Awe Striker, I can't believe how cool the latest Vamp is!

I know this is crazy, but anyone think this one looks more like the VAMP than the old one? Maybe it's the comics but looking at the two side by side I think "Now THAT is the Vamp!" even above the 82 version!

VERY nicely detailed! It always bugs me when the factory puts great details into a vehicle or figure and then ignores them when it comes time to paint. Paying attention to that stuff makes the vehicle really pop. Great job!

I agree,you did an excellent job bring out the details in the mold. I suppose costs prevent the big 'H' from doing that kind of paint work. Very Impressive! 8-O
