Description
Yukon was there one second and in the next was gone. Looking over his shoulder, Alexei saw the armored Aerosani flip over on its side, and a menacing gray shadow behind them."Go comrade, GO!" he screamed to his driver Dmitri, "GOOOOOO damit!" Even tho they couldn't hear over the engine they both knew the tiger was turning its turret towards them and would fire any second.....
Just when I thought I was going to have spring it snowed and got freezing cold. Anyways this didn't put me in the best of moods but figured I would try to use it while I could and did this quick little shoot.

thanks, it is quite the interesting vehicle, the photo was a ton of fun too!

and I thought I knew most of the 'vehicles' used in WW2. You've done a great job with the kit and photo.

thank you very much!
i new when i saw these kits, that i HAD to build them. i plan on making a few more next winter.

I haven't built kits in years and I'd love to make one of them; plus the big armored looking version. There are so many great kits out there now.
π: 0 β©: 1
there are alot of great kits out there now a days. and with the internet getting them is a lot easier.
the small aerosani was under $10us and the bigger armored one was somewhere under $20. both very nice kits and worth every penny.
π: 0 β©: 1
Very reasonable. I was buying Tamiya tank kits back in 1971 when they were $10 or so. I haven't checked any of them lately.

Tamiya is still a great brand. most of their kits from the 70's - 80's are under $20us.some of the newer kits run from 30-50 but are worth it.

this kit manufacturer(trumpeter) has a habit of making the marking wrong or of little historical value(it looks cool tho)
someone did tell me the "NEMAHTY" refers to a brave young Russian who died during combat and some Russian vehicles printed his name as a tribute.

oh, so its not just some weird Russian letters thrown on to make it look all WW2y?
π: 0 β©: 1
i have heard that its not and it does have some significance . i wasn't able to dig anything up but i only can read English. that was what i was told anyways.
but this brand has been know to play fast and loose with he Russian letters. think they jut make things look cool and say thats good enough. alot of times their color charts are wayyyyy off to.

Was this really a thing cause it looks convincing even though it's just a model.

yea both aerosain were real and used by the Russians in WW2(tho not in great numbers and aeras)[link] [link] freaking crazy propelled bathtubs of death.
as for the rest of the photo i just kinda made up XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Man ... some people are crazy!
π: 0 β©: 1
god i know. as i was building them i keep thinking how freaking scary it must of been to load up on one and go hunt down the Germans. there really isn't much to them and the hulls are very thin.

I say that all the time I retreat.

Looks real. Nice concept and implementation!

so thats how the bobsleg (or whatever is called that winter sport) was created!
π: 0 β©: 1
thanks dude, this one was pretty fun to set up but a bit chilly.
π: 0 β©: 1
yes they did.
Aerosani are still used in some place even today but in a civilian functions(travel, mail service ect) and of course used by bond villains
π: 0 β©: 1

π: 0 β©: 1

as for scale models, these two were pretty cheap, one was $7 and the other $15us, well worth it.
π: 0 β©: 1
