Features
The MiniArt 2-72028 1/72 Service Station is a detailed scale model kit depicting a mid-20th-century European roadside petrol station and small workshop. Molded in six different colors of high-quality polystyrene, the kit is visually appealing straight out of the box-though adding paint, primer, and washes significantly enhances the lifelike detail. It's perfect for dioramas, model railway scenes, or military layouts.
Composed of 169 finely molded parts across 51 sprues, it features crisp brick textures, delicate rain gutters, downspouts, and roof tiles-all without visible sink or flash marks. The assembly process is modular, starting with wall panels that interlock with square pins to ensure precise alignment. Builders recommend using a flat surface and supports to maintain squareness, as the instructions don't include positive base locators.
A two-level structure, the model replicates tiled roofing reminiscent of classic European villas, complete with ridge caps and gutters that require careful installation but add realism. The base and foundation, however, are somewhat fragile and benefit from additional bracing, such as strips of balsa, to prevent misalignment during construction.
Presented as a robust, display-ready building, the model appeals most to experienced hobbyists who appreciate detailed craftsmanship and can navigate its structural subtleties. With patience and care-particularly regarding alignment and roof detail-the service station transforms into a standout centerpiece that enhances any scene with authentic architectural flair.
This is a multicolored kit, which can be built up without painting.
