Another beautiful submission Suncar. I have the same kit and details to add on my Tamiya JS. Hope it looks as good as your when I'm finished. I like the missing fender section on the right side. It really shows of the Friul tracks.

Hi Sancar,
very beautiful this new baby.
Very good and realistic weathering. And good choice to install the friuls.
Cheers

Nasty piece of business. I can see why the Brits were alarmed when this and the JS-3 rolled down Unter den Linden during the Berlin victory parade.

Thanks for the nice comments. The green i used here basically Tamiya xf 65 but i never use a direct colored. I tonned the green with other suitable greens yellow and white.. For this kind of eavy tanks i like to remove fenders. At leat a small parts. It gives a wilder look to tanks. Tanks again for your comments..Stay tunned

Hi,
beautiful model indeed.
Why are the tracks darker on their central part of the outer face? Some water or oil leakage?

Thanks once again. Massimo on a few model and photo i saw that dark places on tracks. You may think its dirt, moisture or similar.
