ICM 1:35 Soviet BM-13-16N 'Newbie' build


Recommended Posts

This is my finished ICM BM-13-16N MRL. I feel a bit nervous of posting on here because the modelling standards are so high. Anyway, here are some pics.

Note the broken door handle :(

The doors gave me problems due to a poor fit, in fact one was broken on the sprue.

The rust effect is my first attempt at 'weathering/ageing'.

The paint job on the cab is a bit rough and I soon realised my mistake, paint too thick. Lesson learned ;)

No weathering on the underside. I might add some later.

My thoughts on this kit:

Pros:

Interesting subject

Nice detail

Good value

Cons:

Broken and warped parts (the box is too small resulting in the sprues being tightly packed)

Brittle styrene

Some missing locating pins/holes

Thanks for looking

Cheers :drink:
