Nice work Luigi. Steve is the man to ask when you have proobs. I will be hitting him up with LOTS of questions soon. I have the AFV T-34/76 and the Dragon /85. I will be kitbashing these since like you said, AFV has the interior. I'm following yours and Dan's builds for inspiration and keep me going with mine.

Very neat looking work there Luigi - and we do like a nice pile of debris I used all the great suggestions I had to build it On the background of the last picture there's a plastic glass filled to the brim of polyfilla dried and broken into small parts. I have also broken some toy bricks and all will be placed on the sidewalk

Nice job on the paint finish Luigi, base looks like it's coming along nicely as well. Getting close to the finish line!

The weathering should be done: Now on with the tracks and the wheels and it will be done

Nice weathering, Luigi. I agree with Dirk about the mud on the road. Darío

Very very nice Luigi - just one suggestion - yer modelling the 34 in town and it has mud on the running gear - make sure you deposit some mud on the road - tracked vehicles will shake like ferk on paved roads so a lot of debris will be shook loose Thanks for the suggestion, I will put the pigs behind and on the side of the tank @all thank you guys

Thanks Dan I still have to do all the chipping and to tone down the decals that look way too white now. The mud is done with the same product I used on the small shermie, the structured powder from True Earth. It's a very easy product to use, water based and you don't have to be careful not to overdo, as it is very easily removable.

Thanks guys wbill76: I'have still to deal with the wheels and tracks. BTW I've never painted fully movable tracks, do I have to be particularly careful or can I deal with them exactly like the rubber ones?

Post by wbill76 on Jun 14, 2012 13:12:22 GMT -5
Luigi, That depends I suppose on how you would deal with rubber ones! I've never used the T-34 MK tracks so I don't know how that particular set is when it comes to being fragile/durable, so I would suggest taking it easy on them at first.

At last I came back to this one I had left on the shelf. I hope Tobias will excuse me, but his idea for the base was so good I couldn't resist stealing it. So I finished the base: Next up tracks and wheels and the tank will be done. Ah, btw, the diorama title is "sniper" in russian, as it will depict a russian soldier shot down by a sniper as he makes a step ahead of the tank.
