Thanks!

Well, it deserves in my opinion and not just for the Valentine series.
What I like of Miniart is the fact that its kits are accurate, very nice and crisp but not too expensive
Its figure set, in my opinion are the best made in plastic on the market
Furthermore is company which has a lot of diorama items and quite a lot of delicios subjects such as the Pk 42 russian kitchen field.

As a russian armour fan, I hope it will produce in 35 scale a T35 a Gaz 67 (I wonder why Tamiya has stopped to produce it) and (why not?) a T 34

Thanks for the article

Cheers

Miniart also got an award for one of their scenic diorama items also.

With regards to the GAZ, they do already do a Russian Command Car with crew (I'm not a car expert, and the box doesn't indicate what model this is. Looks like a GAZ to me but I may be wrong), very similar to Tamiya's car with the ICM figures.



I hadn't realised Tamiya had stopped the run of their GAZ. I've seen it around in shops. Perhaps they are preparing for a new tooling, I don't know.
