• German Spahpanzer Luchs A2" (German Spahpanzer Luchs A2)

Despite the beauty of its lines, the Luchs is not a frequent visitor to specialized publications, shows or competitions. Fortunately, there are always modelers with excellent taste who know how to rescue such gems from the mists of oblivion. There's also a lot of guts on this kit, as not all of us are capable of running the risk of making mud and dirt like Fabrizio's. The piece also has an undeniable charm, the result of the contrast between these effects and its NATO camouflage.

• MTVR

Speaking of special vehicles, we've got another one: a transport truck with extra armouring that's a pretty "refreshing" piece in its own right. In addition to the subject rarely covered in this article, we also appreciate the way Pablo has achieved such a realistic look for his vehicle, using methods and means that are all very simple and available to most modelers. I'm sure you'll learn a lot from this particular article.

• Panzerhaubitze 2000 (PzH2000)

• YW-750 armored ambulance

• 9A52-2 SMERCH

You really need to summon up a lot of patience and courage to assemble a kit like the Smerch. It's never easy to handle kits of this size and make them look attractive, realistic and cool, as Domingo has managed to do. It's precisely because of all these reasons that we've decided you'd like a taste of a rarely seen piece that's utterly spectacular in every sense.

• Model making courses
