Proceeding with this one too :slight_smile:
Small correction of the colors, still can’t catch the green nicely with the camera.


This is with default settings of the camera:

@metalhead85 Thanks!

I printed some of my designs like AK 74s, RPGs, RGD-5 grenades, also some jerrycans, whit which I will fill the back of the UAZ. I will add more like ammo boxes etc.

Satin varnish and added the dashboard decals, ready for the chipping and washes:


Also I will replace those handles on the door, because they are molded solid. Already designed them for 3D print:

I designed also tires for 3D printing, because the rubber ones have some flash and are not weighted. Front and rear wheels are weighted plus one spare for the back (not weighted):

Fresh 3D printed wheels for the UAZ :slight_smile: , looking much better than the rubber ones and with some sag at the bottom. Letters also came out nicely, but are very small to see in the photo.
