GAZ Command Bus in a spot of bother


Recommended Posts

Dear Colleagues

 

Just finished the dual axle GAZ bus outfitted as a command vehicle.  You have to be very vigilant as you build as any inattention and it'll bite you!  I used a jig in the end, I wished I'd used it earlier to true everything.  The wheels, apart from the spares, are Panzer Art resin.  Still, the details are so petite it is hard not to like.

So the crew try to get it going

That's a great little story line that you have going there. I really like these Miniart Soviet trucks/buses, and you've done an excellent job on this one as well as the figures. Nice work.

Thank you for your appreciation Guys

 

You may not have noticed it but there is a 1 mm twist in my chassis.  I could probably bully this into submission by gluing the doors closed and the roof down, but I can't bear to button it up, and you won't tell will you?

 

George, charming as the latest Miniart GAZ werkstat vehicle is, it would have to wait in the que behind 4 other GAZ variants I have mysteriously acquired!

 

Regards

That's some nice work. Those figures are cool and look very natural. Nice to see some iregularly shapes 😉

Builds that have interest inside and out are very appealing. 

 

We'll done

Hello Andrew

 

Beautiful model and great scene built 👍
Everything is harmonised very well and the photo background fits very well.
I am also planning a repair stop for my Opel bus.

Congratulations on a most interesting diorama. The model is excellent, as are the figures .The ground work is very lifelike. All in all a great job, well done 👏
