Neat design! It's tanky without being, well,
"tanky". The color scheme is very nice indeed.
I'm unsure of how the crew fits, though--more
detail shots needed, perhaps? (Ldraw? ;) )

It's also a very, very, *very* Soviet quality.
Designing the vehicle around the gun is pretty
authentically Elefant, in the German sense of
the name. Clearly, this is an Eastern Block
machine, designed for maximum punch and maximum
serviceability, ease of manufacture and numbers,
while sacrificing on comfort and, well, fenders.
But who needs fenders when you can just blow
stuff up?
