Tons of possibilities for camo. I weathered my scratch built T34/122 to show a burnt deep desert light brown with hints of darker brown camo swirls...showing a heavily desert 'sun burned' scheme. Since I have the kit now, I think I will attempt your scheme for yet another future build. For your version: very nice weathering and detailing. Well done indeed!

Looks great Matt! Love the camo, works very well with the base's colour to both stand out and blend in, really nice!

The colors, weathering, groundwork, even the shape of the base all look great! How/what did you use for the backdrop behind the tank? Also, what's that flat metal plate that sticks out on the lower right side of the turret?

Fantastic work! The weathering is perfect IMO showing how the sun would have faded the paint and being a tank from WW2 the chassis would probably have been through quite a lot. Very, very nice.
