About product

British armored truck on the B-Type chassis in 1:35 scale

An injection-molded plastic kit of a British truck on the B-Type chassis in an armored form. The model belongs to the range in which the MiniArt brand has covered equipment from the period of the First World War, including bus and truck forms of the same chassis. Scale 1:35 makes it possible to combine the model with figures and other period equipment.

The real subject

The B-Type was a British bus chassis of the early twentieth century, built in large numbers in London. Because it was readily available and simple to maintain, it spread beyond city transport during the First World War and served in a number of modified forms. The design matches the period: a tall ladder frame, an open driver's station and wheels with solid rubber tires. The armored variant added sheet metal walls to the body.

Building and painting tips

Period vehicles have many thin and fragile parts, mainly on the wheels, the fenders and the frame, so it is worth separating them from the sprue with a sharp knife rather than nipping them right at the part. Try the assembly dry before you apply any glue. Finish the chassis and the wheels before fitting the body. When painting, a muted lightening of the base shade helps, along with a wash to bring out the riveted and sheet metal areas and a final layer of dust and mud on the wheels and the lower part of the frame. Do not paint the rubber of the tires black, as a muted gray looks more natural at this scale.

Who the model is for

  • anyone interested in equipment of the First World War
  • modelers who collect period trucks and utility vehicles
  • builders of dioramas with figures in 1:35 scale
  • more advanced modelers who do not mind fine parts

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

FAQ

A British bus chassis of the early twentieth century, which during the First World War was also used in truck and modified forms.

Check the number of parts on the box of the kit. Period vehicles of this range tend to be finely broken down.

Rather not. The thin parts of the frame and the wheels call for patience and precise gluing.

Yes, 1:35 is the most common scale for figures, so the scene can be completed.
