Hi Mike
I guess it depends on what "really strange paint schemes" means Anyway here's another thread that may be worth a look :

Hi Mike
It should be useful to know what T-34 version you'd like to depict.
Here some other ones

Hi Mauro,
LOL very very true my friend, but in all honesty as I haven't yet brought a kit the field is wide open
I have been thinking of the AFV T34 with interior but am open to all advice options, I must admit i haven't even looked if it is a T34 /76 or A T34/85 & don't know what the best kit is as I have to make it OOB
Cheers Mike

So, look here. There are some interesting T-34/76
http://army.lv/ru/t-34/risunki/631/512#info
Here some 85 exemplars
http://army.lv/ru/t-34-85/risunki/631/266#info
As far as I know, captured exemplars aside, on average T-34/76s can give you more possibilties to represent an unusual camo scheme. In fact, almost all the T-34/85 were painted in Russian green

Mauro,
Once again you provide some great ideas, I must admit the T34/85 with the white & squiqqly green lines looks very interesting.
I shall put that in the top 5 ideas so far
