Background:
The Soviet-designed ZU-23-2 is a side-by-side pair of manually-aimed 23-millimeter cannons firing six-ounce projectiles a mile or farther at a sustained rate of 400 rounds per minute. It’s a powerful and versatile weapon with air-defense and ground-support applications.

Build:
The terrain was built up and then contoured with Sculptamold on a wooden base. It was then coated with Vallejo Acrylic Mud. The figures and HMG were painted with Vallejo Acrylics using contemporary news and available internet images.
