Moskvich-2141, 1/43

[martslay]

Hi, everybody!

The Moskvich-2141 car was issued in the USSR from 1986 to 2001. As a sample for the Moskviche 'The car of year-76' - Simca 1308 has served.

Now the Moskvich-2141 meets very seldom. The majority of them already on a dump.

To me have ordered to make model of such 'old man'. A basis - Moskvich-2141 model from DeAgostini in scale 1/43.

This model will be part of a diorama 'In a final journey'.

What at me has turned out - on a photo.

Pleasant viewing.

WOW....That is looking fantastic Martin! I love it, especially the shattered windshield.

When I look into my crystal ball I see a very unhappy future for this 'car of the year'
Nice work Martin - like Leon I'm particularly fond of the windscreen.

Nice work Martin. 1/43 Diecast is not the easiest to work on. I look forward to seeing the diorama come together.

I like the windscreen too, and the sunbleached bumper looks perfect !

Many thanks, guys!
Moskvich will ride out this 'super-car':



The car has the name 'GAZEL'. Sometimes happens so  :
