Miniart have provided an illustrated step by step guide, on their website, to assembling their vac form buildings.
If, like me, you are a fan of Miniart's vac form buildings then this online guide will be an enormous help.
I've assembled a couple by a process of trial and error but here in a series of photos and video clips the process of assembling these kits is clearly outlined.
Some of the captions are a bit iffy - for triangular filler read triangular file and I think I know what they mean by Smeak the planks of the floor several times but the intention is very apparent from the photos and videos.

This guide will be particularly useful to any modelers tempted by Miniart's new line of "Dioramas in a box" the first of whch is 36004 POLAND 1944 which contains an urban ruin diorama base, plus the Miniart kit 35032 SOVIET 76,2 mm DIV. FIELD GUN ZIS-3 w/CREW.

To see the assembly guide check out the Miniart website (LINK) and click on assembly.

Actually I've talked to dragon online customer service and they said it should't be too long before these hits the shelves. By the way just in case you don't know, they have a 10% off pre-order special for these miniart kits. the coupon code is EARLYBIRD08 . Thought I should share, save a few bucks. Nat
