Looking good so far !
Did you find pictures of other vehicles than the one kept in latrun ?

If you don't like the wheels that come with the kit, the company Dream Catcher does a set.

I wounldn't say these softskins are unliked as much as they aren't well known. They have a certain ugly beauty that only russian vehicles seem to have. I haven't too many russian softskins (count as of now is zero) but this may be one to add. Good work by the way.....looks sweet!

i there.I have this btr 152 from ICM-1/72,and you might help me with your improvement.
the BTR 152 from ICM, was not on my planes,but i won theme in a contest -prize,because they decide to give kits instead of medals or money.Since i start to make the BTR too,i will have to cut the windows,because i need to give life to this "ugly thing".I have made a lot of research,and i still didīnt find good details from the interior,so,if you donīt take me wrong,do you mind if i use your original plan to go on.I think you are in the good way,and i like the way you work,so i am really interested to see more photos from your work.
good job! luis gago(goblin 109)-
ps: dream catcher made a good job with the whells. the ICM ones are good to make a pair of earings.lazy boys.they only detailed one side of the whell.
