MiniArt “Garage Workshop” 1/48

[Green KreationZ]

Not sure if any of you have seen this new kit being developed by MiniArt yet. 


















My LHS checked and there does not seem to be an anticipated release date yet. 

It seems likes a pretty solid kit and will fill a gap in the 1/48 diorama sector. Especially for those of us without 3D printers.

Oh me too!

I have some pretty awesome backgrounds on the way from a company called CoastalKits. One is a 1/48 Luftwaffe hanger in which this would be really awesome in the corner.

  Just out of curiosity, (and I'm no rivet counter by any means) is this time period correct equipment for that era? I'd really like to do something similar to what you're saying but would want it to "fit" so to speak.

I doubt it is accurate or even of German origin. Pretty unlikely these items would really be found in a Luftwaffe hanger. But… I am about to repurpose a few Luftwaffe ground crew and make them into Imperial Japanese mechanics haha. Just not enough variety to choose from in the 1/48 world at the moment.

I hear ya for sure on that Keith. I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing your take on that dio.

Yes this stuff, with the other stuff that come in the ICM ground crew sets, and one can really do some elaborate aircraft maintenance dioramas.
