Would like to share with you my latest build - Trumpeter's T-62 Model 1962. Painted with Tamiya, details with Model Master Acryl - still adjusting to doing oil washes with Grumbacher's Gamsol (it's quite different from Turpenoid that I'm more used to). Dusting is done with Tamiya's buff and Mig Pigments.





















I haven't attempted to correct the loader's hatch, but I did enjoy building this model and highly recommend it.

Hi Ivan.

Your model looks great. I like so much the wethering.

Loks great Ivan ! some drybrushing might help soften the edges of the washes.

Nice build is oob or did you add any addons ?

Great Ivan! Did you use any aftermarket bits and pieces or was it OOTB?

Greta job Ivan, the weathering is fantastic and very convincing! I really have to get myself a T-62 someday!

Weathering is really neat and convincing. But I don't like the texture of the turret, it is quite rough (last pic). Although the russian tanks were rough, but it is a bit overdone I think. Did you do something about the excisting texture from the turret by adding putty or something else? Or is it just the weathering/pictures?

but it's a nice model to look at. Good job!

Thanks for the comments/feedback:

The build is straight out of the box, without any addons or contemplating changes fixes... I'm currently just learning building kits and experimenting with various weathering techniques - I'm getting over a bunch of experiments where I tried to build $100-120 kit/aftermarket combinations, only to ruin them on final stages.

More aftermarket parts to come out in future builds - I might even scratchbuild once I get comfortable enough (certainly a lot of inspiration on this site)

Ivan, your '62 is rockin ! I noticed you added the co-axial machine gun on the right side of the main gun. I checked some reference pictures and it seems you have caught a detail that seems to be over looked on other builds. good eye.
