Here is my IMA Humber light recce Mk3.

The kit has been painted, and is ready for weathering. Its an all resin kit, nice overall but simplified in places.





The kit was first painted black, then i masked off the 'mickey mouse' camo pattern with maskol and sprayed the green.

Here is the vehicle balanced on its wheels


I have used acrylic gel medium to the lower hull and suspension which will be painted to represent mud and dirt during weathering

The kit comes with a basic interior, mainly seats and steering wheel. The seats in the kit are just square blocks of resin so i replaced them with seats from an AFV club M10. I couldnt find any references for the interior, and once the roof plates and crew are in place its hardly visible.


For the crew im using a standing figure from Warriors, part of their cromwell crew set, and i driver half figure that came with a cromwell ferret kit.



The Driver is meant to be operating tank stick type controls rather than a steering wheel but only his head is really visible through the drivers hatch so im not too worried about it.

Any comments welcome

Joe that looks good mate. It is nice to see another unusual type vehicle in model form.

Did you have trouble with covering the black paint with the green? I normally paint the paler color first and then the darker.

cheers

Gday Joe
Good to see variety as Cliff stated...
Your 'mickey mouse' camo is far from mickey mouse if you know what I mean! Not too familiar with the pattern, I think I remember it from the old Tamiya Quad gun tractor?
The figures look the part` the standing fig is going to be placed where?
Cheers
Brad

Thanks for the comments fellas




Same here, but with this it would have been a lot harder to mask the green parts then spray the black.




The roof opening above the driver is covered by a fixed plate, with a hatch over the passenger side that hinges in the middle.

The stading figure will be stood looking forwards in the open hatch.
