Hi there

A while ago, a small czech company was featured on these very pages with a very interesting Humber Scout Mk1. Little was known about this company from what I could gather, and with the kit costing next to nothing, I dived straight in and bought one.

From my order, I was left with the impression of a very friendly and efficiant company and would recommend them to anyone.

I am writing a build article to go with this kit, which I will be posting shortly. So watch this space.

As for the time being, this is how I'm getting on and as always, constructive critisism is appreciated.


The kit did have a few gap issues.......


The model was missing a few metal plates here and there, also I though the lamp brackets were a little bulky, so chose to scrath build them......


Painting is getting underway now, experimenting with some oil weathering......



Well there you go, enjoy

I will update when I have gained progress.

Hi Pat

I bought the figures also. I just need to add a coat of matt finish to the uniform and a few touches here and there. I had great service from this company, very friendly, how about you?



Just the commander figure to finish.

Very good service.
That figure somehow looks to me like a figure from the 50's doing his national service. Something about the narrow trousers and the hands in the pockets
