My photo
Being a modeller for quite a few years now, I decided to explore the endless possibilities that the world (through internet) offers, and come up with a series of ways of building, modelling and painting fast (but not hastily), to create the worlds I was seeing in history books since I was little. . .If you care to join me. . . This is the place to be! And, I promise you to find the way (or ways)!!

Russian Artillery (Part 8) - City Variant

Good day everyone!

It's been a while since my last post (almost three weeks), due to some exams I had to take (yep, constant learning is my moto). The exams and the preparation for them, didn't stop me from painting however (I needed some time to relax with all this studying). I apologize for not visiting your blogs, I will try to do my best from now on (no exams in the near future...). :-)

Today's photos show a full(?) battery element of Russian Artillery. It consists of 4 guns, 4 GAZ trucks (see post - R.Artillery #7), weapon crews (see post - Reinforcements from the post), officers (see post - R.Artillery #1)  and some ammo boxes/crates (scratch made from balsa wood - not the best ones, but they'll do the job).

This artillery section, is destined to be deployed and used in urban settings, thus the explanation of the bases (viariant).



I have finished two more variants, one for steppes (dirt) settings and one for snow terrain. They will follow in due course.

I hope you like 'em!

C&C are welcome!

      Always busy Fran. Too busy that a day's time doesn't seem enough for a day's work!
      As about the exams, I've no idea of the outcome...the autopsy will bring light to the corpse! :-) Thx!
