Just posted a Full-Build review of the first Humber Mark 1 in styrene from the Czech company SKP Model. A curious fact, that this is only the second model of a British Scout Car in plastic in 30 + years. The full review and many images of the kit can be seen:

Thanks!

Hi Jim,

Very comprehensive and informative review. Well structured and written.

I'm somewhat disappointed that they didn't get that Bren mounting right... I would have liked to have scavanged it onto the Dingo, the other CW scout car produced in plastic

Also strange that Eduard didn't provide PE lourves (sp?).

Despite it's shortcoming, I definitely want one of these kits. Where can I find SKP kits online?

Jim, once again thanks for your excellent review!!!

Rudi

Hi Rudi

If you follow the link at the top of the review to SKPs own site, they are selling it online.

I've also found it on SBX Models site - for GB£19.99

Actually, it's a lot simpler - at the top of our reviews, are links to the respective manufacturers' websites
