Considering how many Humvees were produced and in service we see few models built. So many variants as well. Looks a simple kit but you never know :rolling:

didnt take long....splash of paint next

with standardised unit of comparison so you can gauge the size

About 25 years ago, I kept myself busy trying to build each version (from back then — this was before all the armoured types were added to the line) in 1:35, though as usual that kind of plan went by the wayside after I got part of the way in when something more interesting came along

this is a weird kit............the windscreen/roof is a single bit......choice of hard armoured or softskin door......all in clear styrene!!

now ready for some more paint.........tomorrow lol

Makes sense, though, in that it avoids the trickiness and possibly very thick windscreen surrounds when you need to install separate windows. On the other hand, it requires masking where you could glue separate windows in after painting …
