This is another Tamiya kit. A T34/76 model 1943. I painted it with Humbrol #114 and Humbrols camouflage brown for the camo color. I had 3 problems with this kit. First, it was the motorized hull kind. Second, this kit had been lying around our LHS for a long time that the tracks warped. So I had to lay it between my mattresses for a week to make it straight.

Straight forward construction, nothing fancy. No replacements. Nothing. Not that I have anything available like aftermarket parts.
I'm planning to make a diorama using the tamiya soviet tank riders set. Still a long way to go.

Looks good! I am building the newer T34/76 1941 by Dragon, it has the individual link tracks, so no need to place them under your mattress for a week. Nice camouflage job also.
