Hi Ian!

You are the most "early rising" member! Fantastic!

A few very complete photos, it is possible to estimate the quality of the model. A useful tool to compare all and to be able to help strictly between ourselves.

You already knows how it is going to be painted or decorated?

Cheers

Hi Polux I may go with the box art but we have plenty of time to have a good look on the internet for insperation

[Guest]

Look for Greece Hummer (military), looking very interesting!!

Jeeez Ian you're eager eh ... got the hummer and the first GB kit all in the pipe. .... ain't even bought mine yet

Anyway .... this looks like a decent version on the box-art ... i'd be tempted at that.

Nice start as well, are the pin marks a real pain or are they playing nicely and easy to fill/trim?

[Guest]

You have started it, perfect!!!! Looking very good so far Ian!!

I don't know why...but I imagine it just bigger!

Ok, remember you have 6 months to build a "masterpiece"!

Good luck Ian!!

the military hummer I saw had the same colour in and out .. with a type of hard wearing synthetic webbing style seat covering. very little panelling also. so I would assume all would be similar.

[Guest]

Looking good Ian. Im still thinking about buying a Hummer, the Tax is putting me off as i would only use it once a week if im lucky. At the moment im going through My Dodge Ram Phase and have a Dually at the moment.

[Guest]

This is taking form Ian!! Looks good!!

I'm with Colin, in and out it's the same color.

Cheers. Polux

Hello

My knowledge of Hummers is nil. There are various conflicting definitions available. Some say it's post 1992, others say it's GM. Pictures here would indicate that these are wrong. I have a 1/35 Henschel Typ 33 D1 - does that classify as a Hummer please?

Thanks

Aidan

Thanks for the answers Colin and Polux. Aidan you will need to ask Polux ( Pink Panther ) that question its his SIG build

A Hummer, is an American 4X4 Hummer being the civilian brand for HUMMWV (High Mobility Multiporpose Wheeled Vehicle, commonly called Humvee which rolls easier off the tongue. A few type numbers you can look for are posted in the Chat section for this SIG. which can be found here.

In reply to your question the Henschel you mention would not be a valid entry.

I arrive a bit late.....

Ian's response is very correct, this old truck cannot be considered as a valid model for this SIG.

Remember Aidan this an open SIG. If you want to join in, you will be more than welcome. As the same time, if you want to ask anything, we have the SIG chat.

Sorry Ian (Papa) for write in your thread, want to send a PM but was to late.

Regards

Polux
