Nice work Cpt. Jake.  I live in Georgia too.  So I can attest to the authenticity of your paintjob.

Are those Cav sabres in your avatar pic?  I was aircav after my Infantry stint, and I too spent some time in Columbus, GA.   ;)

Great looking trailer, much more character than the original paint scheme.  One of the MBA "car on blocks" in front of that baby would complete the scene.  :)
So many games, so little time.

All it needs is some foil in the windows and a tarp or some of that thick silver patch on the roof to really set it off. Oh and a satellite dish of course...gotta have wrasslin to watch. Any plans for the washer that comes with it?  ;)

Okay folks, I was able to clear coat all the yard ornaments:











My daughter (8 years old) helped base coat matresses, one of the sofas, the trash bags, and she dry brushed the tires too.

I've wanted that trailer for some time, but always thought it a bit too pricy....

How much of a sale did they have, and do they have one often?


Also, like Achilles, I'd like to know where you got the couches and mattresses and such from.


Oh, by the way, it's frakin' awesome!  You've done a great job with it.

Thanks for your service!

I cut my teeth in 1st Cav, had several positions there including BN recon platoon leader.   Why walk when you can ride?  Why fight when you can hide?  Go CAV!  (Where I actually walked a whole damned lot with a BIG damned ruck...)  I too spent some time in Columbus, taking several courses at the Benning School for Wayward Boys.

Where is the 3-wheeled upside-down shopping cart?   ::)

Seriously though, nice job.  The yard trash really completes the theme.

i'm also really impressed with the size of the trailer.  It lists as 25mm, but obviously looks great with a bit bigger figs!

Great job, it's very convincing! If you're not going to do the interior I would just paint it black or suitable colours for walls and floor. Of course, more detail is better 8)
