Terry Barrow shares with us some images of his STZ T-34 Mod 1941 from Dragon with photo etch from Voyager and some external stowage. The model was finished using modulation painting techniques, oil washes, pastel powder washes, and dry
brushing giving a beautiful finished product.

Beautiful work. Excellent faded and worn effect on the paint work.
Thanks for sharing

Hi, TERRY! VERY, VERY NICE! I'm SO GLAD that you didn't go overboard with your weathering! IMHO, I think that too many models are completed with so much weathering applied to them, that one CAN'T EVEN IDENTIFY WHAT THE VEHICLE IS!!!
I'm kidding, of course. However, I think that you did a SUPERB JOB with this T-34 of yours- You've successfully gotten the idea across that this vehicle has seen action, without making it look like it has 20 tons of mud and 10 tons of rust applied to it!
I've just received the very same DRAGON T-34/76 STZ kit in my mail last week, and plan to finish it in a VERY SIMILAR color scheme, with about the same level of weathering as you've done. I'll either use different markings than you've selected, or I'll do it up without ANY markings whatsoever
I'm sure that there will be quite a few modellers that will counter my statement regarding overdone weathering by pointing out that armor DOES get filthy- Fair enough- That's VERY TRUE. I'm just expressing my OPINION, that's all...
I like your choice of colors in depicting a T-34 in 4-BO that has been exposed to the elements for some time. It's VERY convincing! Thanks for sharing with us!
