Videoaviation Model 1/72 Coleman MB-4 Tow Tractor (by Metin Sönmez)

 

Hello friends,

Today I'm sharing a model by Metin Sözmez.

It's a resin kit from Videoaviation.com. A Coleman MB-4 tractor.

The Coleman MB-4 Tow Tractor was a common sight on USAF bases during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, and was used as the primary vehicle for towing aircraft around an air base. The videoaviation.com 1/72 scale Coleman MB-4 consists of 31 pieces of resin, a clear fret with eight windows on it, and a photoetch fret with 19 pieces of brass on it.

Metin has made a very nice model out of this kit, congratulations. An impressive vignette...

Dragon 1/72 M1A1 AIM **Ukrainian army** by Gültekin Kılıç

 

Hello friends,

Today we have a contribution from a new guest. Gültekin Kılıç is sharing an Abrams used by the Ukrainian army. 

Welcome to "miniafv" Gültekin...

I used Dragon's new M1A1 kit. It was a very nice and detailed kit. For the ERAs, I used two packs of Royal Model 1/72 ERA sets. I used approximately 260-70 ERA blocks in this model.

Some of the weathering I did disappeared during varnishing, and the visible weathering and details aren't very clear in the photos.

1/72 scale IDF Magach 6B (Revell M60A3 & BlackDog conversion set) by Hakan Karlı

 

Hello friends,

My dear friend Hakan Karlı finally gave in to my pressure. He photographed his completed models. 

Our first model is the IDF Magach 6. For this model, he used the Revell M60A3 kit and the BlackDog resin detailing set (BlackDog 72066 - Magach 6B IDF conversion set).   

A nice base and a perfect vignette created.

Congratulations Hakan! It was worth the wait.

Trumpeter 1/72 Jagdpanther (late) by Kerem Özkır

Hello dear modelers

The first page of 2026 is a vignette by Kerem. In January, a Jagdpanther in winter camouflage, a snowy environment, and lovely details...like a soldier waiting in line for the toilet..

The figures and toilet are 3D printed, while the fence is from an Italeri box.

Wonderful...
