"Depot of Wreck 1944" by Cardon Pierre
1) The core is just an expansion of this T-54 project, which I'd done some more work on since last I posted on it.
https://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?topic=9077.msg167733#msg167733Added some vegetation (HO railroad lichen) and an AUROA vacuum formed base.
