        Paul,
        As I and the others have said the amount of vehicles and the detail you manage to add is outstanding.

            It is still a work in progress Dzohn, but here's some quick pics. The tarp on the toolbox is a possible addition.

              Did I mention the parts for the Kniga kit come bagged w/o sprue? Very nice feature.

                Nice!! My current Ambulance project came the same way from WSW. As I recall the Arsenal M U-8144T tractors had small resin bars, mostly the smaller parts all the big components were neatly cast with minimal flash.

                  ......and the work continues. Foot bridge element looked small, so increased it by 50', a jeep & a 5 tonner.

                            Trailers (logs are for corduroy roads) are from combat platoons that are dragging battalion assault craft on their trailers.
                            Next are combat companies.

                                Thanks gents. Figs are a holdup presently. There are so many needed and sitting poses are rare.
