The Duke's First Armor in December

Post by Duke Maddog »

I never believed that I would ever get to post this and say that it is finished, but here it is, finally completed after a long hard fight. Here is my first armor/vehicle completed in December.


This is the armory 1/72 scale Russian ZSU-23-4 Shilka anti-aircraft vehicle. My Russian Army has finally taken delivery two days ago:

Thank you for looking in, comments are always welcome. Stay tuned, I have a few more easier vehicles are approaching the finish line so more may be done before the end of the year.

Look at the “flashy thingy” and say cheese….nice work

Thank you Lyle! Hmmm, if I knew how to write that in Cyrillic, I would try to find some place to paint that on!

Thank you Kari!

Thank you Carlos! Yes it is. I've been wanting one of these in my collection for decades. Finally!
