That Jeep does look better in the green!
BTW, how'd you do this?...

That skull is AWESOME!!! Do you have a stencil or is it airbrushed?

It's a stencil I made based on a pic I saw on the net somewhere.

Damn, this looks awesome. I really want to do mine, but in desert sand with black markings. I just don't think I'd have enough time to do it, since its my DD. =\

Hows the paint holding up, anyways? Any nasty chips or areas you've had to touch up?

Thanks! I think desert would look great!

Well, to date no chips or flakes coming off. I was amazed at how resilient it really is. I've scratched it in a few places but never all the way though. That rustoleum stuff is top notch.

I think the California sun beating down on it cured it quite well.

I've changed a few things. I painted over the "hokey" "Kill my spotter" stencil and painted over the skull on the tailgate. It just didn't look all that great to me. I guess it was a good idea at the time...

There is some jeeps produced as military vehicles but NOT USED BY THE US MIL. They are exported to other countries. Mainly Egypt.
