Probably the same way you did all those details on your recent ship builds.... very carefully!

Well, just as I closed in on getting this one done using all the parts, I lost one of the tools. No idea where it went, but I hope it shows up someday. Somewhere hiding in my kitchen is a half built 1/72 scale axe.

I added some all too quick weathering, unfortunately, and it doesn't show the quality of the kit very well. But you get the idea.


I really enjoyed this odd one. I thank Andriy for creating it and offering it for free and I really hope he does more of these odd and early armored cars!

Spectacular!

If anything, I believe the weathering really made the model "pop". Call it what you want, but I think it looks ten times, if not more, realistic than without it. (You'll have to show us how you did it in the future :P)

Really top notch work on this build!

I am really shocked!
When I was designing this model, I tried to make parts as small as possible for making them in 1/43 scale.
But 1/72! I just have no words…
Congratulations and thank you for your story and pictures!

Another nice job Chris. Captures the boxy, utility look of the original very well.

And a nice design Andrey as well.

Great job Chris. The streaky, multi-colored weathering adds a lot of realism. Would look great in a small vignette or diorama. Well done!

[cjwalas]

Thanks guys. And yes, Andriy, some of pieces were VERY small in this scale. But your design fit wonderfully and I was thinking that it would still look as good scaled up to 1/35 or even 1/25.
Thanks again for you models and I look forward to your next project!

Weathering looks realy good
Small diorama or just piece of cobbled street for example is very good idea

I can't wait to see Chevy by You.
Yes,I working on few projects, maybe You can help me with documentation, I PM to You

Regards and congratulations!

Great job at 1/72! , actually any scale. I'm working on on too at 1/32. Working on the wheels now - the only intimidating part of a very straigtforward build.

Compliments again to you and Andriy for sharing it.

Hello, even though the models of World War I are not among my priorities I have to admit that this model is really nice and well done
