Hey guys, here is my t034 WIP.
please let ne know if you see anything that can be improved.

Outstanding work on your chipping and wear James,which kit is this ?

Well done, I like it a lot

Is it the AFV model? I have this model in my stash I'm quite interested in your job

Cheers

Thanks Anthony!
Chipping is down to my new Pro arte brush, i branched out and went for a no2 series 107 spotter. my fave brush yet. Hehe.

Mauro Thanks!

Unfortunately, It is not the AFV kit, If i had the cash it would be We have Hobbyboss 1.48 angle jointed turret.!

Well it doesn't matter. However I'm interested in t-34 interior rendition

Congrats

Haha thanks Mauro., I have been using this link cs.finescale.com/FSMCS/forums/t/90787.aspx to model my turret. Hth

I love the well-worn and chipped interior, which has plenty of that "lived-in" look. I'll be anxious to see what others suggest. Other than a bit of brownish mud & dirt where the boots land, it looks superb to me.

Thanks Pops53, That there is something I didn't think of. Add that one to the list ...

more soon...

The Basecolours of the interior are done. they need loads of washes.
Pops53 i added the mud. needs a light wash now!





I will borrow the Real camera again soon for detailed shots!

Oops missed the turret

It looks very good James

What color did you use to replicate the 4BO green?

It seems to me that you've chosen the right shade of it

The interior is spectacular. It looks well used. Hopefully, you will weather the exterior to match that of the interior. Always like seeing the different 4BO colors people come up with.

Thanks Mauro! My 4bo is a custom mix of tamiya flat green, dark green, Olive Drab, Olive Green and Dark Yellow.
I Mixed a LOT!!!

Thanks Matt, I'm hoping my exterior is as good, i have chosen to use some techniques i wouldnt usually. A hand painted number. And The technique where you pick out details in different shades of green. and i have decided to add gloss to replicate wet patches on the vehicle, something i see a lot on photos but rarely ever depicted on a kit.

A Small update. I have completed all the acylic work. after a long dry to make sure it is all cured, i will start with an oil pinwash. then dot filtering.

I am leaving the upper hull detatchable so i can desplay the interior if i want!

Weathering will tone down the gloss.

IMHO you should have chipped the paint before adding the gloss. Actually, the wet look is something I have been consider for quite some time. Glad to see someone put it to use. What did you use for the "wet" spots?

Hey Matt, Chipping was done before, quite liberally, when I borrow Dads camera It will all be a lot clearer!

wet spots were Vallejo gloss varnish. diluted a little. !

More soon, maybe better photos before progress shots, im not sure yet! Im going to get to work on the rest of the figures anyway.

...and I guess you don't know the exact ratio don't you?

Great job so far james!




Well Matt ,as you probably already known, reliable Russian sources sais that actually 4bo green was closer to olive drab rather than olive green.

cheers

I wish I could tell you the mix Mate! I should write these things down.....

Thanks in advance mate!

I think you'll like it

thats Pretty awesome, Thanks for the share. I tried scratching an electric guitar in 1/35/ didnt go to well...


so, Some good photos. and the beginning of the drawn out process of dusting and filtering. I'm not 100% happy at the moment, but hopefully some more good weathering will make it better.









and a shot of the base so far.

Well, looking at your progresses, it seems that tanks are far better for you!

Congrats! I really like also your graund work !

Kick -ss!
