I don't see the pic, but it might just be my work internet, which has lots of stuff blocked. I'm building a PST kit now even as we speak (well, currently anyway) of the mega-weird ZIS-42 Russian halftrack (a Ford AA truck with tracks in the back!) and the terrific old D-1 howitzer. How do you like the PST quality so far?

Are you building your KV-T for the Towed Gun group build? What kind of gun did it tow, if any?

Larry:
not sure if it ever towed a gun...
i think it was a turretless KV-1, meant for towing stuck & broken vehicles...
a tow truck 4 tanks, so 2 speak.... but i don't know much about this stuff.
the ZIS sounds great... i just love those odd hybrid vehicles !
PST quality seems pretty good, soft plastic tho'...
b extra careful cutting parts from sprues, otherwise u'll gouge ur part.

Burian-sama:

LOL...indeed it has !
i think it looks pretty cool this way tho'... kinda rakish like a sportscar.
& it'll go well w/ my M32 ARV & tiger bergepanzer...
u guys can all call me when ur afvs break down !

bob3242:

thanx 4 being so kind as 2 post my pix !

glad u liked 'em, folks.... still got a lot 2 do on this lil pup !

Looking good as usual Frosty! Once you get it weathered and muddied up it'll be great. Something about it...looks kind of short....maybe the camera angle? Wink [;)] Big Smile [:D]

Looking good Frosty. I learned something new today. I've never seen this before. Man, I love those single color paint schemes. LOL (Easier than those German tri-colors!)

I pressume that it lost its turret to a Tiger? LOL.

Seriously...good job Frosty. I have to admit that it's the first time I saw one of those. I mean even the M-32 recovery vehicle kit that I recently bought had a turret.

looking good, frosty!!!!!

one slight critique, it looks like you got a bit of a nasty fit problem on the front hull there that needs some filling. other than that, it looks awesome!!!! Smile [:)]

Chris:
thanx 4 ur kind words..
as 4 the fit prob, it does look pretty bad with that gap rite there up front ! OUCH !
but there's a piece of 'angle iron' that covers the gap perfectly (part of the kit).
i've put it on now ... but not in time 2 save myself from public humiliation... Black Eye [B)]Ashamed [*^_^*]]Wink [;)]
(just kidding.... i appreciate the fact that people care about making each other into
better modelers here !)
