great work !
Love the weathering on that beast and the T-34 tracks for extra protection is a nice touch.
Did you use pigments for the mud ?

You did a great job on the dirt and mud, very realistic. The rest of the tank and base look good too.

Thank you John and Rob,

yes I use Mig Pigments for the dirt and the basement too. I mixed the Pigments with Tamiya Buff, Mig Acrylic Resin and Plaster and put the mixture with the brush on the model. For the basement I put a little bit earth to the mixture.
Thanks guys !

Regards

Hei Florian

It looks great your big tank. Very, very nice weathering! But IMO the flag is a little bit strange placed and there could be a better branch under the tank. That's just my opinion...

Keep up the good work for this year, looking forward to see more of you.

Hi Florian. Another excellent model and finish. The weathering is top notch. The only thing that lets this down a little, is that the wheels are not articulated properly over the ditch.

Great model! I need to take a lesson from you in mud and weathering! Looking good, nice groundwork for the base as well.

Thanks for sharing! Cheers -

Hi
very nice model. I like the way the markings blend in with the rest of the weathering. Quite often I see tanks which have been weathered but the markings look too clean and bright for the rest of the model. Yours are just right, well done.
