Hi all
Some from the old, now defunct, forum may remember this being started. It was way back in 2016 and was 90% done and then, to my shame, it became a 'shelf queen'. It is the Eastern Express BA-6 kit with a metal barrel, resin wheels and a few PE bits from the Part PE set. The snow effects are Precision Ice and Snow products. It depicts a captured armoured car, now in Finnish service, during The Winter War.

I never saw this one Jim. Very nice indeed. Some good snow depth makes it very realistic

Thanks guys.
It was certainly worth finishing. I don't know why it was 'given up on' - it was 90% done and I hadn't hit any snag to stall the build.
Thanks again for your positive thoughts.
Jim
