Model Overview
This Ready-Made Artitec model recreates a Belgian military Mercedes-Benz Unimog 404S open-bed cargo truck in a dark green finish. The compact four-wheel-drive vehicle features a canvas-covered cab, an open cargo platform with raised side panels and upper rails, and Belgian military unit and vehicle markings. The model’s proportions, elevated stance, deeply treaded tires, and distinctive rounded cab accurately capture the rugged appearance of the original Unimog.
Fine exterior details include clear cab windows, windshield wipers, side mirrors, headlights, grille detailing, the Mercedes-Benz emblem, front bumper equipment, a spare wheel, rear towing hardware, and reproduced underbody components. The open cargo bed includes visible plank flooring and small fastening details, while subtle weathering gives the truck an appropriately used military-service appearance. It arrives fully assembled and painted for immediate placement in a Belgian Army, Cold War, transport, or military logistics scene.

Vehicle History
About Artitec Ready-Made Models
Artitec's Ready-Made models are handcrafted from high-quality resin and produced in limited runs. Each model is expertly preassembled, hand-painted, and often subtly weathered to recreate the appearance of a real vehicle in use. Because every model is finished by hand, small variations may occur, making each piece unique.
Artitec uses vacuum-cast resin to reproduce exceptionally fine, true-to-scale details that can be difficult to achieve with conventional manufacturing methods. Etched-brass parts are added where appropriate to capture delicate components and further enhance realism.
Each model is assembled, painted, and weathered by skilled specialists—a process requiring considerable time, precision, and experience. Artitec Ready-Made models are ideal for collectors seeking exceptional detail and realism without the time and effort required to build and finish a model kit.
