If you did that well on the Zvezda, I'd like to see what you'd get out of a trumpy...
Great hull, BTW. Will you add whitewash on this one too?

Thanks Luigi , yeah we will call this one a half and half.... or something lol................ Decals are on and will hand paint some nos on as I dont have any that I can use for this build . Also gloss coat is on to protect the paint job from nasty finger prints I got the idea for this one from watching WWII in Colour , the episode where the tide turns and the Russians go on the offensive . Anyhoo whilst watching it I noticed a T-34 roll by my screen with a white wash turret and 4BO body. Thought it looked cool so decided to do it on my KV-1.............. next up detail painting . Deano

Long time no update so here it is lol , been weathering this one and the turret is complete minus figure . Still need to finish the hull and tie it all into the base................ There will be another mud/earth mix poured to fix the model down. I am waiting on some crewmen for this one so God knows what Im gonna build next.....getting itchy fingers here! Deano
