I plan on using PSC for the vehicles I can buy and need in bulk. How well do Skytrex models work with PSC?

I am looking for a company that sells models individually for the one offs I would I need to complement the PSC models I plan on buying in bulk.

If not Skytrex, then who? Which Company would you recomend to complement the PSC majority force?

Which size vehicles are you planning to collect? PSC produces both 15 mm and 1:72 ranges of WWII vehicles.

Sorry, I am interested in 15mm

Close enough in scale but not to mix in the same unit. I suggest Zvezda and Battlefront.

A lot of the Skytrex stuff is a bit on the small side, being the old 1/106th scale (which used to be "15mm"). If you aren't too fussy it is fine, but it is noticeable.

If you want 1/100th scale, then as noted above, Zvezda, BF plus Peter Pig, Forged in Battle and QRF. Some of the gun barrels on the metal models are a lot thicker than their plastic pals, which can make them look bigger, even if the chassis are the same size.

QRF are smaller than PSC

Surely PSC sell single vehicle sprues, labelled as reinforcements on their website?

I think he is looking for one off vehicles, not any of the standard tank company. On the other hand he might be able to modify a standard Sherman (let us say) to what ever he needs, say a Firefly.
