28mm Katyusha or Zis turck?
« on: May 30, 2012, 03:27:00 PM »
A friend of mine asked me to have a look around for him and I'm coming up blank. Other than the garbage produced by Black Tree, does anyone make a 1/56 - 1/48 Katyusha? Alternatively, a suitable Zis truck that he could build a frame onto the back of?
So many projects..... so little time.......

There are quite a few russian WWII era trucks made in 1/48, perhaps take a look at modelhobbies site (UK based model shop).

Quarterkit in France do a 1/48 gaz truck. They are loveley models in resin but are expensive and can be tricky to put together. Having said that, even I managed it (not having tracks is a big bonus).
Unimodels also do a 1/48 plain truck but don't know how easy it is to get hold of.

Cheers
John

I suggested he looked through Quarter Kit but couldn't see one when I skimmed quickly. I shall pass it on, cheers.

You could pick up a Russian Truck
