discussion Humber Super Snipe

[PaulTRose]

Humber Super Snipe, Airfix, 1/32nd scale


Monty's Humber


this was new tool back in 1973......i can remember doing it at some point in the late 70s and its been on my list of wanting another go at for nostalgia reasons ever since i took up this modelmaking lark again


at least i shouldnt have to weather this one up since cos its Monty's motor it would have been kept immaculate lol

and ive found a pic of the actual car with the man himself.............has the same reg number as in the kit

Really tempting model this, I have often thought about getting one, I shall watch with interest.

ready for some green paint


since theres no way of adding the rear seat after the rest of it is built ive already painted it and masked it

 

[PaulTRose]

bit more done

Looking good Paul. Looks like it comes with a Monty figure too!

it does.....however its not the greatest moulded figure.........heres also supposed to be a driver but hes missing............so im going to do it without figures

 

[PaulTRose]

getting there slowly


im at that point where i cant do much at a time......do 5 minutes worth of work then leave it alone for it to dry or for the glue to go off

 

[Guest]
