This video is squarely aimed at those that would like to learn how to build there first 1/35 Tamiya military plastic model kit.

The Classic Tamiya kit in 1/35 scale of the Jeep Willys MB 1/4 ton 4x4 truck is my recommendation for a first time build kit of the 1/35 series of military miniatures. It has relatively few parts, but excellent detail some parts are small and maybe a challenge. Why not build one on the weekend with a younger family member, relative of friend?
