I'm very interested in the Universal Carriers, as I've been trying to convert a couple into Soviet types.  Modifying the driver has proven to be very time-consuming, mostly because of my crapness at greenstuff sculpting.  I love the way your Soviet vehicles are bulging with soldiers - it looks very authentic.

Just scrape of the pouch and web detail , and paint with green stuff , You really can't see much of the figures in the vehicle . Its the head gear that says Soviets . A bit of a cheat but ,when it comes to vehicle crews in tiny spaces I find less is more , if you know what I mean  ;D
Thanks for the compliments guys . Its feels  great to finally get my stuff posted , felt like a bit of a tool  talking about all this stuff and not being able to show people when asked about it  ::) Just got to space my posts  out , still got 26 more vehicles built ( German / Allied )
