About product

American G506 1.5 ton 4x4 truck, flatbed, 1:35 — MiniArt

A kit in injection-molded plastic in 1:35 scale from the Ukrainian manufacturer MiniArt. The subject is the American G506 series truck with a payload of 1.5 tons and all-wheel drive in the flatbed form with a flat load bed. The kit is supplied unassembled and unpainted; the exact number of parts and the package contents are given on its packaging.

The real subject

The G506 series was among the lighter American-built supply trucks of the Second World War period. The combination of a lower payload and all-wheel drive made it a universal means of transport for supply and for carrying materials off paved roads. The flatbed version has a flat load bed with side boards instead of a van body, which from a modeling point of view is an advantage — the load bed stays visible and offers room for cargo, crates or figures.

Building and painting tips

Work up from the chassis: glue the frame, the axles and the drive together on a flat surface and let them cure, so that the model stands straight on all its wheels. Finish and paint the cab and its interior before you close it up — once it is glued you will no longer get inside. Cut the parts off with nippers and level the gate remnants, and glue the joints with a thin cement for plastic. Before the decals, varnish the surfaces smooth with a gloss varnish, and once dry coat the whole model with a matte one. Build the patina up in layers: a dark wash into the pressings and shadows, a dry brush on the edges and finally dust pigments on the wheels, the fenders and the underside of the bed. With a flatbed it pays to suggest the wood of the load bed with shades of brown in fine transitions, not with one flat tone.

Who the model is for

  • Modelers with experience of multi-part kits in 1:35 scale
  • Diorama builders who need supply vehicles, not only combat ones
  • Those interested in American equipment of the Second World War
  • Modelers who like working with cargo and patina on a load bed

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

FAQ

It is a multi-part kit in injection-molded plastic. The exact number of parts is given on the packaging.

The package contents are given on the packaging of the kit. If you are counting on photo-etched metal or decals, check it before buying.

Rather for a modeler who has already built a vehicle in 1:35 scale. The chassis and the interior of the cab call for care.

Cargo for the load bed, crates, barrels and figures in 1:35 scale, which give the vehicle scale and a story.
