That's a really cool camo!
I like all your collection, Kuba!

How did you go about scratching the cargo rack above the cab?
Thanks
Evan

Hi Evan.

I used as a reference these two drawings from Humvee manual:

and also several photos. The dimensions I took from them. Materials - plastic rods from Evergreen, metal net from Aber and some minor schratchbuilded parts.

Only six months late hehe.



Better late than never I guess. Unfortuantely its the only one I've got. Its one of two pictures from the Julio Montes book I mentioned, and the other is much lower res and black and white. I recommend picking this book up to anyone interested in obscure Latin American armor.

Joe - thanks a lot for this photo

Humvee number 20 finished It's a M1114 UAH used in Afghanistan by mercenaries, probably cooperating with Portuguese ISAF forces. Model - Tamiya's M1025, conversion set - MIG Productions' M1114 conv., wheels - Blast Models.

Excellent work as per usual Kuba, this is one of my favourites, keep up the good work!

I didn't really want to start a new thread for this and figured this one has become a good place to put information about what-if and exotic HMMWV configurations. I just found another interesting one going through back issues of Armor Magazine. Check out the 1990 November-December Issue here and go to page 37.

With my last model, there is my whole collection:

I've not updated my collection here in a while:

No 14:

Juankar - thanks a lot for kind words And for Your link too.


Nice one Sean Maybe the colour is too dark, but I like Your model of one of my favourite versions

Cheers,
Kuba.

My 22nd Humvee is coming. That's how it looks today:




It's an Academy's M998 IED Gun Truck kit with some addictions - Blast Models wheels, MIG Productions seats, Pro Art Models SINCGARS radio. I decided to replace gun mount with a lot of transported stuff. I hope to build something like this (accesrories in place of soldiers):

Today:

Excellent work Kuba.

My 22nd Humvee:



MORE

Had a spare M1117 turret and a pretty old badly built Italeri Commando Hummer and decided to put the two together for a quick and fun build. As it was a totally off-the-wall build I decided to give it an almost sci-fi type paint scheme... hope you like it:

Sean - better photo please! I guess it looks interesting, but... better photo please!

Reminds me of the camo on the Micro Machines "Terror Troops" vehicles from the 1990s.

23rd Humvee is coming... This time Hamer Magen David - Israeli modification of M997 Maxi-Ambulance:

And almost ready to paint:

so i am new to modeling i only have about 8 builds under my belt, but am now obsesed with humvees just by reading this post! i was curious where you guys go to find all these different variations of humvees, obviously you guys change some of them yourselves. But i am struggling where to find humvees. The only one i can find is the tow missle version. Also what scale are your humvees in? i would really like to find 1/35 scale
Thanks for any help i would appreciate a push in the right direction!

You can find multiple versions of HMMWV models in 1/72, 1/48th and 1/35th scale.

There are multiple on-line retailers that sell HMMWV kits.

Here are a few sites with consolidated information on HMMWV's.
