Miniart 1:35 British Lorry 3t LGOC B-Type is a plastic kit of a British truck on the chassis of the London B-Type bus, in 1:35 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
A plastic kit of a British three-ton truck derived from the London B-Type bus, in 1:35 scale from the Ukrainian brand Miniart. Miniart is known for finely subdivided moldings and a richly worked-out chassis, so this kind of model belongs rather in the hands of a modeler who already has building experience.
The B-Type bus of the London General Omnibus Company appeared in 1910 and became the first bus truly mass-produced in larger numbers. The vehicle had a wooden body structure on a ladder frame, chain or shaft drive to the rear axle depending on the version, and an open driver's position. It was precisely the simplicity and the availability of spare parts that meant the chassis was also used in a truck version for carrying roughly three tons of load. Vehicles of this type ran through London and in the rear areas during the First World War, where they served to move materiel and men.
Start the build with the frame and the chassis and let them cure on a flat surface, so that the model stands on all its wheels in the end. Paint the engine and the drivetrain before you cover them with the hood. On the wooden bed it pays to lay a base in a sand shade and over it a glaze in oil paint or a brown wash drawn in the direction of the grain. Paint the spoked wheels separately and fit them last. Keep the weathering restrained: dust on the lower part, darkened areas around the engine and rubbed edges on the bed and the steps are enough.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
