Good afternoon, colleagues and interested. And finally I was able to force myself to do something after the New Year and finish something started or start something new. I present to you build started at the end of last year. In fact, like all AVD models, she gathered in the evening. But I worked with the details for a long time. To begin with, the purchase and replacement of all optics. A little photo etching (nameplate, wipers) Wiring and hoses. It was very "fun" to do them with an extremely meager amount of information and blueprints. Made them by photos and videos as I saw. I opened the upper hatch and threw garbage inside. And of course, rotary front axle. The prototype is randomly selected.(Liked) Coloring - Akan Pigments - all sorts. Thank you for your attention, enjoy watching. м

Good day, colleagues. For a review, I offer you a fresh build. Somehow it took me to the 43rd scale. I've been wanting to make a fire truck for a long time. The cherished box from AVD was bought a long time ago, the hands reached recently. The beginning of the assembly was marked by the purchase of a set of photo etching and a set of fire equipment from Petrograd, because what AVD offers did not fit into any gates. Like all AVD models, the assembly involves a lot of sawing, a lot of skinning and a lot of grinding. From the self-made - I redid the fastening of the stairs. Slightly modified the handles on the body Remade the "matyugalnik"(Speaker) Modified the roof of the cabin I made a kind of walkie-talkie with a wire inside (something is even visible on a couple of photos) Well, the use of photo etching and fire equipment, which is written above) Coloring - Tamiya X-7, Tamiya LP-2, a little Akan The prototype was chosen by chance (I liked the photo =)) Enjoy your viewing. And some photos before painting) And prototype

Hey, I just saw a superb build on Facebook based off of a 1/43 AVD kit. Short look on scalemates.com and ebay doesn't show many on sale, not to mention reviews. Are these worth the relatively high price tag put on them (~50 Euro)? I understand they are partially metal, partially plastic. Anyone build any and care to share the experience? Thanks a lot!
