Tim worked this Trumpeter KV-1 into a winter scene taken from a photo of an abandoned vehicle that broke through the ice in a crossing and was frozen there. The original photo shows six Wehrmacht troops walking past the tank but Tim gave it a touch of action by including three Dragon Soviet troops in a cautious pose as the approach. He added photo-etch fenders, brackets, and grills to the base kit. It was painted with Tamiya acrylics and weathered mostly with Vallejo products. Krycell snow/ice and Liquid Ice opaqued with craft paint poured onto a plexiglass sheet all added to the winter effects.
