Started this a few years ago, and every so often will lift it out and do a bit more, then put it away and forget about it for a few months. Bought the Ukraine at War book, and using the reference to do a bit more. Also realised I'd made a couple mistakes, too late to fix now though. Plan on adding some road cones, turned one on the lathe yesterday, made a mould and cast some today, still need to paint them up though.

Re the road cones, easy enough to make some in 35th scale if required for future projects :-)

Way to go. I wouldn't mind some 1/72 scale cones myself; just don't know when I'll be able to pay for them.
