hey everyone, wanted to share my version of an Uzbekian tank
using the Trumpeter kit, had some trouble fitting the era bloks, but I gues that's because I can't wait to get on with it,gave it a coat of dark green, some brownmix, and some sand yellow,washed with burned umber,pinwashed with light beige sandcolour, then light misting of stone/beige dust colour, scratches along the way, just gotta do the periscope lenzes and the main MG (forgot that one )

added a self printed version of the flag for added colour ,and the end of the barrel has had an artistic detail too


from this topic http://armorama.com/forums/197082&page=1

Thanks Mike! and Dan!

the base is just temporary,will try to make a little bit ground under tank


@Dan the kit flies together like the other T62 kits, only "problem" I had was making the era blocks to fit, there are not much ref points, had to look at the colourdrawing from the box, and I added an extra block on the left side, didn't like the feel of those gaps when using one less, and just noticed I missed 3 blocks on the right fender in front of first tank, and one next to the gunmantle, will be fixed too
the sideskirts are a bit tricky, i glued them after I prepared the tracks and wheels, then had a screwup when applying the washes, it fell of!!, luckly I managed to get it to stick again

and F'd up on the rear woodlog, will not be adding that one!
