  1. Photo time, there is a Russian language modelling site which I have gotten the images off. It appears that the boats were a brown water navy during the soviet era.
  2. This thing is certainly going to take a LOT of paint. Not a hard build and being Soviet it’s pretty industrial
  3. Time to get back to ships (well boats), I bought this monster and after doing some weathered 1/35 military stuff I’m ready for this. As it’s So yet era I can weather the absolute hell out of it and add some decent size figures.
  4. Completely agree. The youth and treasure of Europe had been squandered by that stage. But wait! Here comes influenza !

  10. Next is to fill the gutter with poured resin which will Katherine’s in and I can make it look like it’s quite the river
  11. Next is to seal it in; I’ve cutout a shell hole which will be filled with water and the little mortar half submerged. I’ve also added a wash along the side of the road which I can add running water to
  12. So this is the plan, to sculpt the road on the side of a hill, the lower end being a shell hole full of water with a little mortar in it with a rope attached to the steam winch; then a hill behind with a refugee family around a fire
