Have a new model under construction, it is the self-propelled gun ZSU-23-4 Shilka. The kit from MENG is used. A model ZSU-23-4 model 1965 is to be created. The kit is very suitable for this building project. Here are photos.

Hello Dan, today I want to finally answer your question. The MENG models should not have too high expectations when it comes to the accuracy of fit. Especially when you install the interior. I did it and worked very carefully. In the end, I had the problem that the top and bottom did not fit together. There was a lot of work to be done to solve this problem. But we are model builders for that. There will never be a completely problem-free model. I have now finished with the model and will not change much anymore. Show some pictures of the model today, sometimes also the size comparison of the ZSU-37-2, that should also be interesting.

Beste Grüsse LKW

Nice set of guns. I'd be interested in knowing which color you used for each.
