Wow, you just have all kinds of awesome projects going on! I would love to see a tutorial on how to weather a tank like your KV, and how to create the groundwork on your diorama

Wow!! I really like the damage and decay to the tank and how well they sit into the land. Very nice.
Happy Modelling, -zon

Everything ties together so well. What is the guy on the rear of the tank doing?

Hi Robin!
Great idea and realisation!
p.s. there are letter mistakes in Cyrillic - should be
"ОТВОЕВАННЫЙ У ПРИРОДЫ" and not "ОТВОЕВАННОЙ У ПРУПОДЫ".

That`s really well done mate - as for the guy on the rear of the hull,he looks like he`s pumping water out of the engine compartment as part of the salvage.

I don't know how I missed seeing this one before! You've done a very nice job on the KV-1..the MAZ and the scenery.. Excellent all around.
And thank you for showing the in-progress pics.

Bloody nice job Robin ,,love the ground work and very nice work on the vehicles ,,this is one to be proud of ..know i would be

tho i am not sure if that MAZ would be able to pull out a stuck 45ton KV-1 without tracks but i tell you this ..god it would be fun to watch them try
I know the voices ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas
