BZ-38 - 1/72
 

Name BZ-38 (# 323)
Manufacturer UM, Ukraine
Packing Hard paper box with nice boxart
Kit type Injected, with vinyl tyres
Quality Kit contains parts from green plastic, rubber tyres and a foil with pre-printed shape of windows. Plastic parts are different quality. While the parts of cabin are quite nice, the parts from the fuel tank superstructure are horrible. Especially the rear part of the fuel tank is full of sink marks, filling and sanding was quite consuming. However, this is a kit for a couple of evenings to build.
Instructions Very clear, contain vehicle history and painting and marking guide
Decals Yes, for two vehicles. The decals tend to break as soon as you dip them into the water. Light overspray with a lacquer may help.
General impression & Note Nice model of interesting vehicle, which looks fine in a collection of tanks. It can be used in a diorama, either with aircraft or other AFV.
