Smile for the Motherland, Ukrainian BTR-80 1/72

Good afternoon guys,

I used to be a member of this site many years ago but I’ve only recently rejoined the site. I’ll post my latest project which is of a Ukrainian BTR-80 just after the invasion. The kit is the old Trumpeter BTR-80, the figures are a mix of 3D printed from Scale 3D and Mig Productions. The building will be familiar to many of the US modellers on here as it’s from Walthers Cornerstone.

I had a real nightmare with the clear parts and glazing and in the end I went for that boarded up look as if the glass had been smashed in but the poor Ukrainian businesses remain open.

I hope you like it.
