From ValeryN: 15mm Vehicles for my Soviet Army (24 Points)

Greetings to all!

It's time for me to get involved in the event and start showing what I'm painting.

The first part of the miniatures presented today are two self-propelled guns - ZIS-30. They were produced at the artillery plant No. 92 in the second half of 1941 by the open installation of the ZiS-2 anti-tank gun on the T-20 Komsomolets artillery tractor. This was a very rare vehicle for the Soviet Army. They were made only 100 (compared with 35,000 T-34s!). 

Also, I painted two sapper trucks. This addition to my roster of the engineer-sapper battalion, which I painted during the last year's challenge

A few more photos of painted models:

This is a total of 24 points.

First, welcome back to the Challenge, Valery!

The trucks are very good, and always useful on the tabletop, but that ZIS-30 is quite an interesting (if ungainly) looking vehicle.  As you point out, it was astonishingly rare in light of the typical Soviet production methods of this period. Something you don't normally see on a player's roster.

I like the weathered green that you've used for these models, it seems a little lighter than what you normally come across, I like how they 'pop' to the eye. Great work!
