Dust as in the game Dust? Looks cool! Almost like it should have been an actual tank, and an odd one to see still on a tank chassis, instead of a walker.

In the in-game fluff, the SSU (Russia, China) don't have walkers like the Axis or Allies. They were late to the party.

I used to play the game.

I have seen Russian walkers though, which is why I asked.

And I thought there was one based on a KV tank as well. Crazy Ivan or something like that.

But they do have trained Gorilla soldiers if I recall correctly.

Yup. The Axis have zombies as well.

Yeah, that had a few AT-ST style walkers. I think for the most part the walkers are modified versions of axis/allies walkers. Stolen, or salvaged, fluffwise. Mostly they use the big mecha-style power suits. And big heavy duty tanks.

Update.
Now comes the anti- tank tower it. This is complemented with a tube of RB 130 mm.
The fit of the tower was bad and I had to grind a lot of filling and. The tube passe not immediately and had to be removed hp.
The tube depends on but is too heavy, it will therefore still stick in a certain position.

Re: Sci Fi Dust 1/35 IS- 5 Mao Zedong

The construction of the Anti Tank Turret is also ready and here one more time images with the AA turret.
