Nice job so far,I will have to follow this one,I have it in my stash and plan to use it on a group build.But I'm just asking do T-34 tracks sag that heavily,I built the Tamiya T-34/76 kit and I don't think they have that much sag,just want to be clear,thanks.

keep the pictures coming !!!

Ive seen T-34 models with tracks that sag in between each road weel. Frankly, i cant imagine why. As you can see in the pic (if it uploaded properly) they dont. But in all, your build looks good

um, i really have no idea how much the tracks sag, i just think it looks cool, and i really didnt sag them that mug, they just kind of sunk a tad more then a expected. (individual links) '

thanks for the comments.
