Just found this manufacturer myself the other day in one of my periodic searches for "1/144 Hummel". The photos show a lot of layer lines on slanted vertical surfaces. No thanks.

The stowage bits and generic scatter terrain look promising though.

I agree, and the lines look fairly deep while the guns look way too thick. Good enough for wargaming but not for collectors.

YA and MH, thanks for your thoughts here.

I saw some with bad lines too, but the smaller bits might be things to consider (a domestic supplier has some value too).

I'd not seen "Sherman" bits before (road wheels and track) , those extras are nearly always German stuff. Priced at $2 USD on ebay now – that's a pretty good deal.
