I want to show you some pics of a project I`m working on now. It`s the DML T34/85 model 44 with a exterior update set from Royal models (two PE sets and some resin stuff like the fueldrums and the commanders hatch. And the Russian Tankers from MIG produktions but that`s for later on. Still got a lot to do though but it`s coming nice together. Lot`s of fiddly PE stuff :-) :-)

Enough talk here are some pics

Here are some pics of the MIG tankers two of the most brilliant figures I ever had



As usual I like to hear all comments, critics and such

Love the fenders. That PE horn mount looks extremely "fiddly." Better you than me. Great job!

Lord Ola Ola,

This is fine workmanship of PEs, very clean build, the thing impressed me the most is the box on the fender, if you are not having a PE bending tool in your possession, then it's awesome demonstration of skill to fold such uniformed box, even if you had one of them bending tool, it takes a lot patience and skill to do such fine work. Too bad Obe is not around, he would be proud of your work.

Great stuff!

ARGH to Hell with Obe's opinions... It's very good Rob... Patience I'll never have went into what's already been done. (++)

Very nice work, Faust. I agree with the others, the PE is cleanly done. Looks like you have to fill in a gap in the turret. Will you try to add some cast iron texture later on?

mooi werk en ziet een leuk figuurtje uit !!

ik krijg volgende week de T34/85 van tamiya, misschien kunnen we achteraf een bijpraten over beide modellen en een review doen ?

Ola People

Sorry That I replie to this thread so late. I want to thank everyone who Commented me on this tank. It`s the first time I`m doing such a Big PE job and I`m really satisfied with it.

Folgore I don`t think I`m going to add extra iron texture on it since I have no idea how to and in my opinion the Texture on the hull is good at itself.

Dmd VEry nice idea and we can easily do that. When We are both finished we can compare the DML T34 to the Tamyia T34 and make a review. Great thinking.

again I want to thank everybody for commenting and up to the next update

The PE looks great, Dave is right, The box on the fender looks spectacular.

Can't wait to see more
