Saw this photo in one
of the books: http://russiannavy.net/models/zis-5/Zis-5/zis5-guntruck.jpg and decided that I got to build
it. Ive had a kit of the PST ZiS-5 and used
it for the conversion. The conversion was pretty
straight forward. The cabin was very simple and was
scratchbuilt from styrene. The gun on the back was
a naval 21-K 45mm anti-aircraft gun, which was a close
relative of the 20-K gun mounted on most of the Russian
tanks of the period, so I used a barrel from ARMO 45mm
tank gun. The rest of the gun is scratchbuilt. |
