Hi Gents,

This is what I been working on lately. It is a Dragon 1/35 JS-2 M UZTM that'd been left alone for 10 years or so half started...

2 or 3 lil things remain undone, such as figures, light, ...

It's been an OOB build, w/o any PE or aftermarket stuff.
Decals come from an oldie Tamiya T62.

Tha paint is Tamiya acryls, I added oil paint washes, Mig pigments and products (fixer, oil & grease stains) :











A road wheel's been torn apart by a missing panzerfaust hit ! Lucky crew !















And finally here comes a general view



I'll post more pics once it is totally over.

Hope you guys like it.

Regards,

Richard

Hi!
the slogan on the base must be "За Родину". And phraze "Na rodina" makes no sence in Russian...

I really like the rust effect on the engine deck. Also, did the cast texture and the torch cutting marks on the end of the hull come that way in the kit or did you enhance them? Either way, I like the torch cuts and it doesn't look like Dragon did it.


To add to what Roman said:
Rodina generally translates to "motherland" although for Russians the meaning is a bit deeper than that.

In the prepositional case (?? I always forget- there are eight cases in Russian as opposed to four in German) Rodina becomes Rodinu. Sorry, but you will need to correct the plate. It's pronounced Za Rodinu.

Write the name of the topic to "Na Rodina".
"Rodinu"and not "Rodina".
Na Rodinu: Home or Homeland.
Za Rodinu: For the Homeland.

Nice kit and built!

Actually the russians have 6 cases despite the germans, and that is right so far, with their 4

Good thing in russian though: only 3 tenses: past, present, future -> thats it.

Lucky us (germans): all the tenses (past perfect, perfect etc.) AND the 4 cases... But I guess that's Sorry for hijacking the thread...

"Na rodina" = "Нa родина" doesnt exist in russian.
What you can say is "Na rodinu" = "На родину" which means on the way to home, on the way to motherland.
But this would be an unusual thing on tank

"Za rodinu " = " За родину" is the right one and means "for motherland".

All in one great IS-2

One point, with the wheel gone the torsion bar would drop and might even drag on the track.

Otherwise, good work.

Exactly. And because of that, most likely the crew would take the whole torsion bar out completely.


BTW, the torsion bar did not look like that at all
