current project is a 1/48 Harvard by revell from the 'reno racer' set....apparently it goes back in this form to the '90s but is even older than that as it was originally a monogram offering

hope to be able to start decaling soon

That rust and grime on the humvee looks pretty effective, but wow that is one tiny model!

Nice looking humvee.
I can't make my mind up weather to go for the Dragon or the Revell 1/72 Humvee..
How was the Dragon one to build?.

ok...nicely moulded...........instructions are confusing tho.....made mistakes cos they were.....wheels and tyres need some brute force to put together

it came in one of those '2 in a box' offering they do so i got another one to do but as a cargo version with a canvas back
