UAZ 452 "Bukhanka"

When your vehicle is nicknamed after a loaf of bread, it might not be the most beautiful thing ever designed. But if said vehicle has been on the market for 52 years with only minor upgrades, and can still be bought new, (love the names of some of the submodels) well...I guess they must be doing something right?

 

I swear UAZ designers deliberately designed these things to be as hard as possible to recreate in Lego. Again, the headlights are slightly too close together, but with a half-stud offset they're slightly too far apart, and the smooth corner gets ruined.

I spent way too much time on this one. I'm not 100% happy with it, but it was finally time to move on.
