MiniArt Models has established itself as a leading manufacturer of highly detailed military vehicle kits with particular expertise in WWII soft-skin vehicles, armored cars, and specialty equipment often overlooked by other manufacturers. Their 1/35 scale military vehicles collection documents the essential support vehicles that enabled military operations across all theaters of World War II. Each kit reflects meticulous research using original plans, period photographs, and surviving examples to ensure historical accuracy. MiniArt's commitment to detail includes full interior modeling, photo-etched components, and comprehensive marking options that allow modelers to create museum-quality representations of these important military vehicles.
American Military Transport
The US Army G7107 series represents the backbone of American military logistics during WWII. MiniArt offers multiple variants including the standard 1.5-ton 4x4 cargo truck with wooden or metal bodies, panel delivery trucks, and versions with winches. These versatile vehicles served in every theater, transporting troops, supplies, ammunition, and equipment. The kits feature detailed chassis with authentic suspension, engine compartments with visible components, full cab interiors with instruments and controls, and cargo beds with removable canvas covers. The Bantam 40 BRC represents the early reconnaissance vehicle that evolved into the famous Jeep, available in multiple versions with US and British crews. Armored bulldozers and tractors document the engineering vehicles that cleared obstacles, built fortifications, and maintained supply routes. These American vehicles enable authentic dioramas showing US forces in action across Europe and the Pacific.
Soviet Military Equipment
MiniArt provides extensive coverage of Soviet military vehicles that are rarely available from other manufacturers. The GAZ-05 series includes staff buses and ambulances showing the versatile civilian-based vehicles pressed into military service. The GAZ-AAA cargo trucks represent the standard Soviet transport with multiple variants including the BM-8-24 Katyusha rocket launcher that became legendary for devastating artillery barrages. The 1.5-ton railroad trucks show the specialized vehicles designed to operate on both roads and railway tracks. Soviet 2-ton 6x4 trucks appear with towed artillery including the 76mm USV-BR gun. The LAP-7 rocket launcher and other specialized weapons systems document Soviet innovation in mobile firepower. Railway equipment including flatbeds and gondola cars show the critical role of rail transport in Soviet logistics. These kits enable accurate recreation of Soviet military operations and the unique vehicles that characterized the Red Army.
German Military Vehicles
German military vehicles in MiniArt's collection span from light personnel cars to heavy tractors. The Mercedes-Benz Type 170V appears in multiple variants including cabriolet and saloon configurations, showing the requisitioned civilian vehicles used by German forces. The L1500A (Kfz.70) personnel car served in various roles including towing the captured Soviet 76.2mm F.K. 39(r) field gun. The Tempo E400 light truck represents the three-wheeled utility vehicles used for light transport duties. German tractors including the D8506 with cargo trailers document the agricultural equipment pressed into military service. Captured Soviet T-60 tanks converted to German use as artillery tractors and recovery vehicles show the pragmatic reuse of enemy equipment. The Sd.Kfz.234/3 heavy armored car represents German reconnaissance and fire support vehicles. These diverse German vehicles enable authentic Wehrmacht dioramas showing the variety of equipment in German service.
British Commonwealth Vehicles
British military vehicles receive thorough coverage with multiple armored car variants. The Dingo Mk.1B scout car appears in several versions with crews, showing this important reconnaissance vehicle's widespread service. The captured Dingo designated Leichter Pz.Kpfw. 202(e) by German forces documents the reuse of British equipment. The AEC Mk.I armored car represents the heavy armored cars used for reconnaissance and fire support. The Austin armored car with full interior shows WWI-era armored vehicles that continued serving in secondary theaters. The B-Type military omnibus and lorry document the requisitioned civilian vehicles that transported British troops. British versions of American vehicles including the Bantam with British crews show Lend-Lease equipment in Commonwealth service. These British vehicles enable accurate recreation of British and Commonwealth operations across multiple theaters.
Specialty and Engineering Vehicles
MiniArt excels at modeling specialty vehicles that performed essential but unglamorous roles. Armored bulldozers in multiple variants show the engineering vehicles that cleared obstacles under fire, built defensive positions, and maintained supply routes. Recovery vehicles including the Top armoured recovery vehicle and Bergepanzer conversions document the vehicles that retrieved damaged equipment and kept forces mobile. Railway equipment including flatbeds, gondolas, and specialized railroad trucks show the critical role of rail transport in military logistics. Refueler trucks, ambulances, and radio trucks document the support vehicles that enabled sustained operations. These specialty vehicles add authenticity to dioramas and demonstrate the complexity of military logistics beyond combat vehicles.
MiniArt Kit Quality and Features
MiniArt kits are renowned for exceptional molding quality with crisp surface detail, fine panel lines, and minimal cleanup required.

Photo-etched brass components provide ultra-fine details including grilles, screens, hinges, and other delicate parts. Clear parts for windows and lights are precisely molded with proper thickness. Decal sheets offer comprehensive markings for multiple vehicles with excellent registration and color accuracy. Instructions feature clear exploded-view diagrams, painting guides with color callouts, and historical notes. The kits represent excellent value with extensive detail and multiple display options.
Interior Detailing and Super-Detailing
MiniArt's emphasis on full interior modeling sets their kits apart from competitors. Engine compartments feature detailed engines with separate components for blocks, heads, manifolds, and accessories. Cab interiors include complete instrument panels with individual gauges, steering columns with detailed wheels, gear shifts, pedals, and seats with authentic upholstery texture. Cargo areas show floor details, bench seats, equipment stowage, and structural framing. Opening doors, hoods, and tailgates allow display of these interior details. The full interiors enable multiple display options including cutaway views, open configurations showing interiors, or closed vehicles with visible details through windows. Super-detailing opportunities include adding wiring, plumbing, additional stowage, and crew figures interacting with vehicle features.
Painting and Weathering Techniques
WWII military vehicles offer diverse finishing opportunities spanning multiple nations and theaters. American vehicles typically wore olive drab with white stars and tactical markings. Soviet vehicles featured various green shades with red stars and Cyrillic markings. German vehicles showed dunkelgelb base with camouflage patterns in rotbraun and olivgrün, plus tactical numbers and unit markings. British vehicles wore khaki drab or SCC colors with Commonwealth markings. Weathering should reflect operational environments including European mud, North African dust, or Pacific jungle conditions. Techniques including pre-shading, post-shading, chipping, streaking, and pigment application create realistic operational wear. Proper weathering transforms clean kits into convincing representations of vehicles in service.
