UNI-MODELS (UM) - 1/72
A few years ago is UM splitted in Uni Model (UM) and Ukraine Models Military Technices UM-MT. After the splitting the T-26 and BT variants were
released under the UM-MT label but are possible in the shops also available under the earlier UM label
Note: The early released T-26 variants (under Skif and UM) have rubber tracks and the later under "Um-Technics" released variants have hard plastic tracks

Kit 221 - Sherman with Mine-rollers T1E3 "Aunt Jemina"
The engine of the Sherman "Aunt Jemina" variant was too week and had a pusher plate fitted at the rear for a second Sherman.
It seems that the pusher plate is missing on the UM-Model.

Model built by Neil Lyall

Comments by Neil Lyall- May 16 2010:
These cars were self propelled with an air cooled 76 h.p. Steyr motor.
Overall construction was simple with few problems. No warped pieces and no flash, except on some turret pieces. The slab sides, ends, chassis and top
of the hull are all a very good fit, with no extra sanding or modification needed. There are a few very minor hairline cracks on one or two joins,
which are barely noticeable, and will be very easy to fill.
The buffer beam supports were not a good fit into the body. I cut the locating pins off the ends to ensure a flush even fit onto the mountings. The round
buffer faces have very small sink marks - these will be easy to fill. One side of the body there is a small fissure that almost looks like battle damage
- appears the plastic didnt quite cover this area, this is probably a one off flaw, & will be very easy to fill - you can see it in a picture below.
The Panzer 3 turret had a bit of flash, and the turret roof needed some sanding to make it fit. I couldn't find my old Revell Panzer 3 Ausf N to
compare it. What is supplied in the kit looks the part, though I'm sure a Revell turret would be better detailed. The pistol ports at the rear of
the turret were not cast in a fully rounded shape, some sanding improved their shape a little. An ESCI panzer 3 turret I had on hand fit nicely, but
as it was from a Flammpanzer I won't be using it.
Part 1 was missing from the kit. This is a tiny piece measuring perhaps 2 mm x 1 mm and locates on the lower hull between the exhausts. I'm not
sure if I lost it, if I did it must have been loose in the bag. I doubt anyone other than a rivet counter would notice its missing, but it will be
an easy job to make another from a piece of plastic rod, which I'll do.
The axle and wheel assemblies are a little sturdier than on the D-37, DT-45 railcars, but I glued mine in place anyway, as this will be a static model.
The rail track supplied with this kit is a couple of millimetres narrower than the track that comes with the D-37/DT-45s. As these were probably not
operational on russian broad gauge this is probably right. Pictures exist of these cars in Germany and on duty in the Balkans.
The gun barrel will need drilling out, and the roof access rungs next to the doors on each side are cast on, these will be better cut off and replaced
by wire, as will the rungs above the entry doors on the top of the Panzer 3 turret.
My pictures are the model built totally 'out of the box', with no modifications, or filling, or changes, yet. I've yet to add the pioneer tools & the
gun cleaning rods, which will be added after painting.
Going by some antenna masts included on the sprues, it appears that UMmt will be releasing the Infantry and Command versions of this car. These cars
operated as full or half trains (Armoured Heavy Scout Trains, numbers 201-210) with a mixture of artillery, infantry and command cars, as well as with
tank carrying cars, pushers, & 20mm quad flak cars.
I'm hoping UMmt makes all the needed components to make a 7 or 14 car train, as I'll definitely be buying all the components, based on this kit. It was
not a difficult build.
Casting Problems - Comments by Al Magnus - July 12 2010:
I ordered the latest UM kit, number 255 - Heavy artillery armored car S.S. from an online shop a while back. This kit promised to be a step above the
not so great resin kit of the similar Planet Schw. Schienenpanzer Kommandowagen that I had built early in the new year.
What I got from UM, as far as I'm concerned, is a huge disappointment. The moldings are good except for the sprue (labeled B) containing the body parts.
They all have fine striations/flow lines all over the plastic parts and in the most inconvenient of spots - such as where the rivets are located.
To fill the striations means you'll most likely also wipe out the adjacent detail. To me it seems that the mold release agent (which covers the parts
in a thick greasy coat) is the culprit and prevented the plastic from flowing into the mold properly. And the vent like structures on the lower body
pan are terrible. The triangular shaped gussets (or whatever they're called) that sit beside the vents are poorly cast, resulting in large parts of
them missing. Fixing these would be next to impossible.
This really irks me since I was expecting this kit to be light years ahead of Attack's resin version I built earlier this year. I felt the Attack kit
was poor but this one gives it a good run at being even worse.
I've contacted UM via email, have waited two weeks for a response, but have not received any sort of a reply. I had hoped that UM would have at
least had some interest in rectifying this and provide me with a new sprue. It would be in their best interests to keep a member of the modeling
public happy and avoid getting a bad rap for poor quality kits. But alas, this does not appear to be the case, so as a result I now warn others
thinking of buying this kit that they will possibly be in for a nasty surprise upon opening the box.

Kit 259 - Railway load Carrier with 38T


Tank carrier car with Pz.Kpfw 38(t) tank
The LT(Light Tank) vz.(model) 38 was destined to become one of the most widely used Czechoslovak tanks, although not in Czechoslovak hands. Ordered
into production in 1938, the LT-38 drew on the experience from earlier LT-35 and became the most successful product of the Czechoslovak industry.LT-38
in different variants was exported to many countries and gained an excellent reputation among its foreign users such as Sweden (THN Sv), Iran / Persia
(TNH), Peru (LTP), Switzerland (LTH - Pz39) and Lithuania (LTL).
Kit um304 - SU76 SPG - closed version


SU76 SPG (SU12?) closed version
Up to the usual Unimodel (Skif) high standards, this much anticipated kit has six sprues of 109 crisp, clean injection moulded parts (including 'link and length' tracks), a small photo etched fret and a set of decals with markings for two
Soviet SU-76s. All road wheels and suspension arms are moulded separately, while the four part hull has two optional position hatches (but no interior detail). The upper hull is nicely detailed and a number of accessories are supplied, including tool boxes, a spot light and tow hook.

Kit um306 - Russian T70M Light Tank


T-70
This is the second release from the Skif/IBG 'Unimodel' partnership and it looks just as good as the first (the BT-5). There are 107 'long run' injection moulded parts (including 'link and length' tracks) with fine raised detail. There's
also a small fret of photo etched parts and a decal sheet with markings for three tanks (one is shown in a colour three view on the back of the box). All road wheels and suspension arms are separate mouldings, the gun and turret are designed to move and upper hull accessories include ammo boxes, lights, towing hook and a spare wheel. While there is no interior detail there are optional position hatched in the turret and at the front of the upper hull.

Kit um307 - T80


T-80
Virtually the same kit as the T-70M but with a larger (two hatch) turret and gun...and different decals. As with the T-70 there are 107 'long run' injection moulded parts (including 'link and length' tracks) with fine raised detail. There's also a small fret of photo etched parts. The decal sheet has markings for just the one Soviet tank (a colour three view is on the back of the box). All road wheels and suspension arms are separate mouldings, the gun and turret are designed to move and
upper hull accessories include ammo boxes, lights, towing hook and a spare wheel. While there is no interior detail there are optional position hatched in the turret and at the front of the upper hull.

Kit um308 - SU76M SPG - open version


Model built by Mark Deliduka

SU76M SPG - open version
Same road wheels, 'link and length' tracks, lower hull and gun as the SU-76 but the rest is all new. Not only is there the new upper hull, with it's 'open' rear section but it's fully detailed along with ammo boxes and 31 rounds of ammunition. The back section of the gun is now included and it's fully detailed as well. In all there are 150 crisp, clean injection moulded parts with nice raised detail, a small photo etched fret and a set of decals with markings for four vehicles (all 1944).

Kit um309 - ZSU - 37 ( Late Version )

ZSU-37 (1944 version)
A dozen or so parts make this versionslightly different from the ZSU-37 1943, released a while ago. You now get 129 crisp, clean, injection moulded parts (with good raised detail)...including 'link and length' tracks, separate road wheels and suspension arms. The 'open' gun turret is fully detailed and there's an optional position driver's compartment hatch. The decal sheet has markings for just the one vehicle.

Kit um317 - Gaz AAA Truck


Kit um318 - Armoured Vehicle BA-6


BA-6 armoured car
Similar to the BA-10 but not the same...a different shaped body and turret. There are 78 ( 57 of them are 'common' with the BA-10 kit) crisp, clean, injection
moulded parts, 12 rubber tyres and a set of decals with markings for two Soviet vehicles (one from 1938, the other...1943). As with the BA-10, there is no interior
detail nor optional position doors or hatches but the turret is moveable and the underside has reasonable detail.

BA-10 armoured car
This is the first Unimodel kit not to included photo etched parts...but you do get rubber tyres (12 of them). Along with the tyres, there are 82 crisp, clean injection
moulded parts with restrained raised detail ... and a small decal sheet with markings for three vehicles. There is no engine or interior detail and no optional position
hatches...however, there is good chassis detail with separate wheels, brake drums, axles, suspension, drive shafts, exhaust, transmission and sump. The turret is
moveable but not the guns. Accessories include two rear mud guard mounted storage boxes and side mounted spare wheel.
Kit um320 - Armoured Vehicle BA-3


BA-3 armoured car
This is just a re-issue of the BA-6, with a couple of detail changes to the upper body shell...so minor they are hard to notice! The new decal sheet has markings for
two vehicles...one from 1935, the other from 1941.
