I really liked the models as an addition to the diorama - simply superb! This was my second order from the seller, I've already placed the third one and we're waiting for new items; we need more vehicles for the USSR airbases :)

A good and very detailed model. Small traces of pushers when printing are easy to remove. The detailing for such a scale is excellent. It's a pity, of course, that they didn't even give a hint about the cabin (I drove this armored vehicle before - I know what it looks like). But let's try to improve it. Along with this model, I also took others - all are in the photo.
