Hello everybody, I'm Felix and I am again. And I'm a newbie. I leave with you this work I have done. This is a Russian SU122, with winter camouflage. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks

You've done a terrific job on the old Tamiya IS-122. I love the peeling paint and where the paint looks like its bubbling from the rust under it. I also think you did a good job with the tracks and running gear.
Are you going to put the tank in a diorama, or are you going to leave it as is?

Great job! I am building one of these, too. Are those the tracks that came with the kit? If they are you did a superior job with them. I bought Fruilmodel tracks because I could not get the folds and twists out of the ones with the model and I thought they looked much too thin. I really like the smashed light, too. The paint and cracks in the white wash are very well done. I had thought about leaving mine bare like you did, but I put all the boxes and spare tracks on. I used those from the Fruil set because I think the one with the kit were too small and had not enough linkages.
If it weren't for law enforcement and physics I would be unstoppable!

Thank everyone for the comments. In reply let me tell you in a pedestal, do not put in a diorama. Tracks are the original kit With Friumodel tracks the win more. Thanks again.
