Description   Big fancy artillery batteries are nice and all, but sometimes you need something louder. Sometimes you need something cheap, something simple, something..subtle. Something as in your grandfather's old pickup truck with a rocket launcher placed onto it's back. And with that you have the Katyusha, this baddie, in numbers, fired a swarm of rockets to barrage a wide area. The rockets were not very accurate, but that doesn't matter when you're firing a bunch of them into the vicinity of your enemy. The main problem is the time it takes to load up the rockets. It often took over an HOUR to get the rockets loaded for the barrage. At the end of it though the Katyusha did its job, it was a terror weapon designed to barrage, demoralize and frighten the enemy before the main attack began. 

I wanted to have this done sooner but ive been pretty occupied. Ill probably break after this and wait until June to start the D-Day tanks. 
The lineart is on instagram too btw

nice! I really liked the style of drawing men and military vehicles.... but, what did you want to write on the bumper of the Katyusha? "СЛОМИМ ФАШИСТОВ" maybe?

Like all things made by the Russians it was made because someone dumped vodka on something.

Somewhere nearby, a full military orchestra is belting out the Russian national anthem as a solitary tear slides down the conductor's cheek at the sheer beauty of it all.

I have memories of driving this thing in Battlefield 1942. Sure, it’s mostly memories of being unable to see while shooting and not being able to shoot while driving, but still!

...and me exploding because those cars are fragile as glass in battle. I found their best use as large explosive traps/kamikaze driving into enemy tanks.
