Awesome work Kuba....excellent detail. I love the engine!! Would love a photo set for my website if possible.

Thanks Henk and Brent

Brent, You've got photos on Your e-mail box

That is easily one of the best Hummer builds I've ever seen. The details, colors and the fact everything is open to show it off just works brilliantly. Outstanding work Kuba.

Thanks Marcel and Karl




There were some reasons:
- this model was made for a contest on Polish modellers forum. So I decided to take the best what I can find in my stash ,
- Academy's undercarriage has some mistakes (suspension too high, wrong type of exhaust muffler etc.),
- I wanted to show the engine and all necessary elements (f.e. front grill, bonnet) was better in Bronco's kit.

Hey Kuba....Is the CTIS system standard on the Poland M1151's? I know some countries use the system but you almost never see it on US Humvee's.

Yes, all Polish M1151s have got CTIS installed.

Incredible detail and finish, and brushpainted as well, amazing!

Cheers,

Christophe

Fantastic model ... love all the details. A lot of planning muct have gone into this to show all doors/hatches open. Great work.

Wow awesome Kuba, definitely your best Humvee yet!

I agree with you Rob...certainly my favorite one he has done to date.

Kuba, who's resin engine did you use? It looks great. You undoubtedly added some scratchbuilt details to the engine?

Hey Kuba,
Well done a fantastic job,
Steve

Thanks a lot to all of You

Brent, the main parts of engine are from Bronco's M1114 kit. And the radiator too (I cut off the radiator from Bronco's body and inserted it into Academy's one). Yes, I added a lot of parts and wiring to this engine. And what was left from Academy's M1151 (undercarriage, bonnet, front grill) I mixed with parts from Bronco's M1114 Frag 5 kit and made this model: http://www.humvee-models.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=586.

Very nice build!

Hey, Kuba

Did you use the PE in the kit or you glue the door straight to the body?

Thx

Excellent and original model Kuba. I really love the look of your interior. On some pics it looks like an actual vehicle.

Olivier

I guess I missed this when it was initially posted.

You did a beautiful job on this one.. always love seeing your work and your attention to the smallest details.

Hisham

Wow! What an accurate and detailed build.
There is nothing you missed!
I guess you must have spend hours in that vehicle. Did these MP guys pick you up somewhere?

Just jocking: I like your model very much.

he only forgot pumping the fuel.....

jay

I glued doors straight to the body.


Thanks to everyone for all kind words about my model

Very,very nice work.Exellent detail
I always find it almost a shame that the roof has to be added to these Humvees.
