which of the two 1/300 ranges H & R or Scotia Grendl are better sculpt wise, and are they compatible

I used to play with H. and R. a lot; I was very satisfied with them.

I liked H&R but found Scotia a bit hit and miss - though that was years ago now.

I've been buying H&R 1:600 ships. Services is good.

Since Andy Kirk took over H&R with a massive range of new sculpts (some by an artist from Wales) and new vehicles, they are my choice for true 1/300.

As far as I am aware Ian Armstrong is now slowly resculpting the entire WW2 a modern range of vehicles. I still think there the company to go to for 6mm armour. Scotia do some nice ranges like modern South African that arent done by anyone else

If your on facebook have a look at the H&R page and you can see what is coming soon. H&R recently bought the Skytrex 6mm range
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Depends which era you're going for.  If you were only going for one manufacturer, for WW2 I'd go for H&R and post WW2 I'd plump for Scotia.  I mix the two.  Scotia's Soviet cold war tanks are pretty good.
