About product

The PAZ-3205 suburban bus in 1:43 scale from AVD Models

This kit of the small-capacity PAZ-3205 bus in suburban form from AVD Models is probably the most easily recognized subject of the maker's whole bus line. Even someone with no interest in vehicles knows it, because it is still met on routes across the whole post-Soviet area. 1:43 scale means the finished model matches the usual collector car models, and thanks to the compact length of the real vehicle it takes up less room in a cabinet than a full-size city bus.

The real subject

The PAZ-3205 comes from the Pavlovo bus plant and has been built in its basic form since the end of the 1980s. Its strength lies in simplicity: a short shell, a sturdy chassis and easy repair anywhere there is a wrench and a welder. The suburban form differs from the city one in the layout of the passenger space, because longer routes need more seats and less standing room. It is in exactly this configuration that the vehicles serve routes between small towns and villages where only a few services run in a whole day.

Building and painting tips

The color schemes of the operators tend to be simple on this type, but the paint is usually quite scuffed, which is an opportunity for the modeler. You will get the best results by letting the base shade dry, adding fine vertical streaks in thinned darker paint and only then evening up the gloss. On the doorsill, around the handles and on the edge of the steps it pays to suggest worn metal with a very fine dry brush. Weather the lower sections and the wheel arches with a dust shade working from the bottom upward, not evenly over the whole surface.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of modern bus transport in 1:43 scale
  • Modelers who like working with weathering and well-observed wear
  • Builders of dioramas of the present day and the end of the twentieth century
  • Those interested in vehicles still in everyday service

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

In the layout of the passenger space. The suburban form allows for longer routes, so it stresses seating, while the city version leaves more room for standing passengers.

Yes, vehicles of this type are still commonly used on routes in the post-Soviet countries, so they can be studied from present-day photographs as well.

The compact body and the simple color scheme make it a relatively friendly build. Care is needed above all over setting the glazing in cleanly.

The make-up of the package is stated on the box and in the instructions with the kit. Markings of a particular operator need not be in the package, so allow for that.
