Much dry fitting and sanding is involved and in the end, nothing fits quite right.
That chassis has so much warp.
With maybe a "Not a target!" (Не ціль! Не цель!) in Ukrainian and Russian on the roof.
A Buddy of me bought a Buhanka two years ago , brand new from factory .
There was a dealer here in Germany for that breadboxes.
And working since then to get it all into the right position and working , in 1:1 scale .
Holy crap this kit was a PITA.
The fit of the parts was all over the place - some sections clicked together, others had gaps. Where some of the parts went together was mostly guesswork.
I also finally added some armpit sweat stains and dirtied up the coveralls of the French mechanic. He's still too clean!
...The boxes are just some I made and printed up in thick paper a while ago...
Other than the above, the kit was a breeze...
"Vova, I think we should tie down our load!"
"Blyat! Misha, you worry too much!":
