Looking great !
seems like you've put in quite a bit of work for that conversion so far. It'll be a very interesting one for sure.

when I look close at this amazing job of Rons I see much more perfect scratch building than I do photo etch. This is just one amazing job Ron and you never cease to surprise me.
the welds are they copper wire made to look like welds?

First Thank you guys for the kind words.
And Yes Cliff you see it good it`s copper wire made that`s it`s look like a weld seam
I made this with 0,3mm copperwire and rolling the tightening piece (doint now the correct word it) from a pinvise to made the structure of the weldseam, it`s works wel up to 0,3 mm above this diameter I was not happy with the result.

Well, I know that
I am simply saying that the blend of both scratchbuilt and PE parts is great and essential to a realistic appearence.
Once again, nice Job,

Please Guys do not get arguments about the use of PE, I used them on this T-34 base because whats on the kit is real Bu**sh** and it was in the conversion kit
I not aways using PE only when it`s necesery, and can make it by my self.
For the rest, the only thing that I can say is build youre models how you like them with or whitout PE, main thing is have fun building plastic models on youre own way.
Sorry for mine bad English :-( but I hope that you know what I mean.
