An easy and straighforward syrian SP howitzer: grafting the good D-30 russian ordnance with the chasis of an obsolete T-34 tank. Both paint schemes are shown as seen during the Syrian Civil War.
Credits: Thanks to Caddaric (of course! ;) ). The length of his T-34/85 was the guide for resizing the chasis of my drawing.

NB: Cuban FAR currently operates the very similar (only differences in the side box stowage arrangement) APTT-122. It is not included here because I donĀ“t know if the genesis of the cuban SP howitzer was based in the syrian one, or if it was completely independent. Cheers.

Thanks Andy & Pegasus!
One question about FD style: How do yo paint the flexible plastic windows of the canvas roof of a truck? I mean, how do you differenciate between that kind of window with the conventional glass window? Thanks.

A few wrinkles added to the regular glass color may work for tent windows. Here is an example:
