Byeol Han has become a regular contributor to Armorama and has shared some very nicely finished models in his time. The latest offering from Byeol is the Academy Late war T-34-85(factory no.112). Byeol built this model with a few after market products in the form of a set of AFV Club individual track links and an update set from Tetra. He also removed the weld line around the turret and then remoulded them himself using putty.

Hi, i love the work you did on this kit! I just got academy's t-34 and was wondering how you reduced the overdone cast finish of the turret.

Thanks to nice comment. Concerning over done mould reducing, I used simple but little bit laborious method. I mixed Tamiya basic putty with GSI lacquer thinner. Then the putty will be gelled. We can control of the viscosity of gelled putty using lacquer thinner volume. Then apply the gelled putty to overdone area using a brush. After gelled putty is dried, we can easily remove the overdone mould applying sand paper. Of course the reverse step will be possible too. We can also add roughness mould to turret using putty and brush end. This would be nothing but an example of correcting method. Then you could finish it applying more smart and efficient method than mine. Thank you for reading.
