Humber Scout Car

Another 'car' completed recently was this Humber Scout Car.  This is a Britannia kit with a resin hull and metal wheels and commander.  I bought it years ago, but it has been left to 'mature' before being treated to the attentions of spray can and paint brush.  There's not a lot more to say really - it was a very simple kit to build and has been finished in my typical late-war green and black finish.  Quite a neat little vehicle - no doubt a much better drive than the Staghound MkIII which appeared here last week.

    Dinky wee model. Nice work, we can all learn from the maturing process.

    Time for some Ferrets?

    There is always something rather appealing about AFVs which would fit in my driveway...

    Many of my toys are several years older than their paintwork.
