You have to have the record for the most completed builds on the site. A lot of them being dioramas.

Looking really good Greg. I'm glad Mig has teamed up with Miniart.

Work from the last day of 2015. All the sub-assembles mostly complete. I have a few struts to add to the gun shield and I think I'll be spraying today maybe. One note, these are ZIS tires/wheels that come with the gun, I assume these will be part of there upcoming ZIS truck series, they are typical Miniart slice assembly and are very nice. I did shoot some primer on the gun sub-assembly to address any seams.

Both kits in paint. The ZIS-5V is further along with the wheels and interior painted. Decals are applied with only the tarp over the cabin needing to be painted black before I apply the camo. For the USV, I need to add decals and detail painting before I add the camo paint.

ok, camo applied to both, decals added to the gun and have started the weathering process. I just noticed that I knocked a headlight off the truck, I'll fix that later.
