HWM Alta Swiss 1952 #18 Collins by Jade Miniatures
Kit available JAD4389
The first HWMs that we received from Jade had slightly heavy paint but were otherwise good. Here we see a much improved finish and we’re not able to find significant fault. The detailing is neatly applied and this includes, where necessary, tiny etched radiator blinds. Collins failed to finish in Switzerland after a driveshaft failed and a wheel parted company with the car!

About Jade Miniatures
A well established range of well thought out kits and hand built models of competition cars, mostly from the golden era of the 1950s and 60s. The kits are generally pretty simple with well cast resin bodies, small numbers of resin and white metal ancillaries and a modest amount of etch. In the case of open wheeled subjects, the etch usually includes most or all of the suspension. Hand builts generally well finished. Made in France.
