Many thanks Tim.That looks fab John. Really shows how they appeared when firing.
Maybe should have done John, but was too wrapped up in the smoke .There's always a next timeVery nice John. I wondered if you were going to use your electronic skills to put some led's in the smoke trail.

Well there we are, quite pleased with the outcome, might use the smoke again at some point, esp to show tanks moving.
Thanks to Allen aka Dude 1 for his help with the "smoke " and to Tim for the advice on the glue and for all those who looked in.
Dzhon.

Just seen this so sorry for the late reply Andrea, Thank you , oh you are quite right about the work place safety, but the crew haven't had time to keep tidy and Russians are just RussiansVery nice dio, John. Smoke and fire are seldom seen as they are a very difficult subject, but you did a real wonder.
Now, (very) less seriously speaking, the dio awoke the already half dead responsible for workplace safety measures in me... Today the Commander of that arty unit would be court-martialed for allowing the storage of empty wooden crates, thus flammable items, just behind the launcher's firing position and for positioning the launcher itself in front of a heat and fire reflecting surface (the wall). But... war is war, Russians are Russians and ...after all, it's just fire!
Hippity Hop, thank you for your enlightening post, I had little knowledge of Japanese bowl movement sounds ,something I'm rather behind on .Well I think it is disgusting, you make cake and fill it with butter icing, then have the audacity to even coat the top, and not only that you have the front to parade it around under the guise of it being a Katusha, and as is known in polite circles, a katusha is Japanese for a sneeze usually followed with a backfire from the nether regions, and so in the translation the wording has been westernised from Katush Ahhh! to Katusha, yet more americanisms creeping into our daily language as the katush was to cover the noise generated by the backfire and the sound of relief that no follow through took place hence the Ahhh! sound.
By the way the model and diorama are great, such a pity there was not more cake to go round - katush ahhh.
Ahhh velly preased to be of ass istance in your enlightening education. Hoppity hop.Just seen this so sorry for the late reply Andrea, Thank you , oh you are quite right about the work place safety, but the crew haven't had time to keep tidy and Russians are just Russians
Hippity Hop, thank you for your enlightening post, I had little knowledge of Japanese bowl movement sounds ,something I'm rather behind on .
I shall endeavour in future to be up to date on such matters .
Skippy Skip .
