I have to ask...

What is with the two vehicle type rear lights? Surely one would have been enough....


Like some poor tank had to go without, because two greedy HD's took all the lights...

The left is the normal break light, the right is a blackout light.

Sounds great. Sounds like we'll have a few T-55s, which will be nice.

Looking forward to it

have signed up. Most likely the SU-122 initial with interior but might be the T-54-2 (with interior) or the Pz III ausf d/B - not decided yet

At first I thought I was undecided, but now I am not so sure.

Whatever you choose Rob, I'm sure it will be fun. Welcome aboard.

I have thought about the tram kit I have on hand but will probably do the WLA motorcycle instead.


I have eyed both of those. I thought about doing a motorcycle, perhaps married with a Soviet sidecar from the Zvezda kit for the lend lease campaign.

I would like to do a bombed out tram in Stalingrad diorama some day. I have this feeling though that once I got into the miniart kit I'd want to build it in service and undamaged.



I am so weak....

I have since purchased the T-34/85 interior kit. And I spent halftime today reading through the instructions for the Soviet tram.

Phil is it worth starting a new thread over on the new site as more and more people are posting there, and this may side may well be archived by Dec/Jan ?

Hi Phil,

Let us know as soon as zhe campaign is ppened on the new site, I would then register and enlist with that T-55.

It will be one of three honourable memory builds for my beloved daddy, a former tank commander in Hungarian People’s Army back in the 1960-70’s.

Hi Phil,

I'm interested in the Miniart Campaign, but I have a question. The campaign rules state an entry from the Miniart catalog, however the subject I was going to use (Austin Armored Car) is not in the 2019 or 2020 Minart catalog. It is listed on their webpage though.

Will this kit still qualify?

Thanks.

Cheers!

Definitely, it is in, Chuck. Maybe I should have used a different expression than in the catalog. Anything that is made by mini-art. I assume it will eventually be in some catalog, but if they make it, please build it. That looks like a really interesting model.

I've created a mini-art thread in the new forum also.
