I am currently 16 and if anyone has been to either the Scottish Nationals (Perth), Glasgow Model Fest or Telford and noticed a large amount of Soviet armour in the Junior class, you've already seen my work haha. Yeah, I tend to live up to the Soviet name and build in numbers :) For those who dont kn...

Nice work Euan. I too am a big fan of Soviet/Russian armor. Nice to see the same passion in others. Hope to see more of your work!

I thought I knew my Russian armor and have many books on the topic. I had to look up this AFV! You did a great job on this! Well done.

Euan, very good job. This is a soviet BT-7 used by Finnish Army, after some modifications, against the Red Army. Very nice subject !

Very nice work on the older of the two available 1:35 BT-42 kits! Btw, what's the story behind the text on the fender toolbox? It's peculiar, I have to say. "Kutsuu" means "calls" or "(is) calling" in Finnish. Quite an oddball vehicle isn't it? Putting an obsolete British howitzer limited to using two-part (separate cartridge and shell) ammunition in a cramped turret with traverse issues and installing that on a light 15 tonne tank chassis wasn't that stellar a success. It's a very interesting subject, though!

Euan; good work. The gritty turret and the varied weathering enhances the model. BT-42 - huge turret and narrow tracks, almost looks like a cartoon!
