Rubicon Models: Weekend Teaser
Rubicon Models präsentieren einen neuen Weekend Teaser auf Facebook.
Our Second Weekend Teaser for March… Sprue Layout for the ZiS-2 and ZiS-3 gun! When we started this project, it was designed as a single ZiS-3 plastic kit. After the drawing phase, we sent the project to mould-making. However, we found that there are many common features between the ZiS-2 and ZiS-3, so we decided to put the mould-making on hold and add the ZiS-2 to this project. With everything completed, we can now „officially“ send this project back to mould-making again!The ZiS-2 M1943 is a Soviet 57mm anti-tank gun used during World War II between 1941 and 1945, as well as during the Vietnam War. A total of 10,016 units were built. In contrast, the ZiS-3 M1942 is a 76mm divisional gun used in both World War II and the Vietnam War; over 103,000 units were built between 1941 and 1945.

Ich finde es gut, dass Hersteller wie Rubicon Models oder Wargames Atlantic vermehrt schwere Unterstützungswaffen, Geschütze und PaKs aus Kunststoff veröffentlichen. Die sind ja sonst eher aus Zinn und das kann manchmal ein ziemliches Gefummel beim Zusaammenbau sein (gerade wenn man so grobe Finger hat wie ich 😉)
