As I waited for the gun to arrived, I dove in on the truck, the only down side is rubber wheels, but I had thought ahead and had a resin set on hand. Other than that, the Zvezda kit goes together very smoothly. I will only be building the gun for this project. I will save the limber, crew and ammo sets for a future project. I have built the crew, ammo set and limber before, all are excellent. I spent about 3 hours last night working on the gun trunnions, lots of parts and some PE, typical Miniart construction.
One additional comment on the Miniart kit. As I'm sure most of you are aware, MIG and Miniart are now working together with art work/camo paint scenes. There are multiple camo scenes and marking options, really nice work here and I'm glad they are working together.
