Yet More WWII Additions

One of the scenario I want to play out of the Battlegroup Spring Awakening supplement requires the Soviets to have a battery of three Zis3 field guns. Now I could just proxy my 45mm and 57mm guns but what's the fun in that?
Queue two Italeri guns with AB Figures crew.
Currently on the paint station are a M26 Pershing and M5 Stuart for the Americans.
Until next time.........

    I agree! What is the fun in fielding proxies when you have the real thing? Fine looking guns.

      Thank you Jonathan. If you haven't got a particular piece what more excuse do you need to add it🙂

    The Soviets will soon have so many guns I'll need more dice! Lovely work though, as always.

    very nice - I didn’t know that Italeri did these. The work on the front of the gun shield is so good that my eyes are telling me that these are metal guns!

      Thought it was about time my Soviets could deploy a mini Pakfront.
