Hi I am des currently living in the Durham area I have been modelling for forty odd years now and dabble in anything I can glue I tend to have a pile of models that need building for everyone else and like the rest of you I need to live to 150 so I can build everything. I have a passion at the minute to build a 16th scale diorama but the only jeep available is by Danbury can you please let me know if I can get by using an 18th scale model. Thanks in advance. Des

G'day Des.
I get the "live to 150 to get things done" mate !!
I cant be much help on the Jeep thing, but there are loads of helpful jokers in here that can help Im sure.
Please take the time to look through the pages of historic builds in your favourite catagory..........there are/have been some spectacular projects gone before and plenty of ideas to assist and inspire.

Good Morning,
Welcome to the Forum! There is not a tremendous difference between 1/16 and 1/18 scale jeeps. Now that I have said it, some manufacturer has probably already done their level best to make a liar out of me, I am sure. 1/16 and 1/18 scale soldiers normally look good next to each other as well. ( Notice that I said normally ;o) Looking forward to pictures of your diorama.
regards,
Painless
