Well unlike the last attempt I mentioned this attempt at the wrangler I found a new model that had most of the parts separated. Like the door handles, latches, fender flares they were all in their own separate file which made it easier to work with. I had to hollow out the model, and I split the main body into 3 pieces which are screwed together. Same with the fender flares they are screwed on. Hell I think I have more screws holding the fender flares on my model jeep then a real jeep has holding them on.




This was step one the front is held onto the middle section with 6 screws with nuts, the rear is held on with I think 14 screws, and the fenders are 11 or so per side(the front piece is split in 2 as my print bed wasn't big enough) The hood is on loosely for now.
This took me about a week to print...
I'm also happy I made it assemble like this reason will be shown later.
