After giving up the hobby for 3 months I received this model as a gift.It made me come back to the hobby.The tank itself is huge even compared to German late war machines.The kit isnt to bad had some small fit issues and gaps so far.It will come straight from the box. Gonna try to finish it this summer,the planned camoscheme will be probably a field green with a white wash similair to my T-28.

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing this.

Finished the upperhull except the tools and some small parts which could break off during the hairspray technic.

What a beast! Looks good.

I see that it has internal details. I wonder if it is made with the old tool of ICM.

Looking at the difference between the sprues i dont think that the Icm kit has something incommon with this kit. The suspension is finished the next step is painting it. The only problem that is bothering me is the exhaust system, it looks different to the book blueprints I own. Any suggestions for the colour of the interior or the fan at the back?

Good work so far.
A lot diff than my ICM kit.

Is there any interior for the sub-turrets?

The only interior coming for the subturrets with the kit is the guns and machineguns parts nothing else.

Great job that is one beast of a tank, I can't wait to see the paint job on it.

Dont have a good camera atm but wanted to keep you up with whats happening on the bench. Finished the tracks and glued the whole tank together. Painted the tracks with a coat of mat black and dry-brushed with gunmetal. Gave the whole hull a brush of field green. Qeustion about the weight particulary about how deep this heavy tank sank in during driving through mud?. Bought vallejo still water and wanne use it for the first time for the mudpuddles any suggestions when using it? Also were the marking/decals painted over with the white paint or should they go on top of the white wash?

I finally managed to get a decent camera,it only took a few weeks so..

Dude,
That looks awesome!
