This one is pretty old. It's a DML ZSU done up in Iraqi markings. The concept of the diorama is that during the Iran/Iraq war of the 1980s, this ZSU just shot down an Iranian fighter. The gunner is posing for the camera with a bit of wreckage.

I call it "Got one!" (http://www.inpayne.com/models/zsu1.html)

Won a judges' award at my local club's monthly contest. The prize, oddly enough was Tamiya's German WWII 37mm quad antiaircraft gun on a halftrack. I was going to use it to duplicate the above diorama in a WWII theme - the German gunner holding a chunk of Spitfire. Never got around to that, though.
