This will be my entry

I plan to make a vignette inspiring by this photo

The signature to the photo - Soldiers unload a mortar from a carriage of M-72 of the Foothills of the Carpathians, summer of 1944.

Yes, it's nice kit Some details need more clearance, but if to add it a little more quality, there will be enough to shake a box with details and to get ready model

Motorcycle is ready for paint:

And test fit on base

I want to place mortar legs in the sidecar.
