Silver Fox Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 My latest AFV is the lovely Tamiya 1/48th Humber. As always the fit is excellent but the marking choice is very limited. Mine is a machine of the 49th Reconnaissance Regiment in Northern Europe in 1045 and the markings were hand painted. I used some Red Zebra stowage and the commander is from the Tamiya Dingo. Thank you for looking 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celt Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Well tidy Humber ,I like these 1/48 scale armour kits,they are handy when you are short of display space{like me} and your eyes are struggling with1/72 again like me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Very nice indeed Andy, the commander figure really makes the model stand out and I really do need to get myself one of these, Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Neat. I do think Tamiya 1/48 figures are slightly underscale though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly my reasons as well IanC. Yes I think a lot of the Tamiya figures are undersized and two dimensional but the chap from the Dingo is one of their better efforts IMHO. Remembering also that there is no exact size for humans and diet/rationing etc means that people were smaller. If I stood next the chap I used to work with you would think I was 1/48th scale and he was 1/35th 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
