I have recognized that a lot of people were selling their old SKIF model kits and can´t wait to buy the new Trumpeter products, because they seem to be "inaccurate" and a lot of aftermarket products are needed to make a nice model. Why? I still have another 2 Gvozidkas from SKIF (basic and Finnish version) that have to be built. Definitely no reason for me to buy new Trumpeter releases and spend a lot of money for minor detail changes.
Today I present to you my 2S1 "Gvozdika" from SKIF, used by the Yugoslav Army. I only replaced the vinyl tracks for resin tracks from SP-Designs for some $4. I also added some wire for different handlings on turret and chassis, also as two pairs of towing cable-ends from my resin spare box.This is my first Gvozdika model, finnished some 2-3 years ago. I used my JNA olive-grey color mix. Weathering, rust and mud were simulated with pastel chalk.
