I have just completed my second Trumpeter, being this time a T34-85 1944 model. With this one I have only completed the external, leaving interior out. Have built it straight from the box. Go to my gallery for pics. :-)

Hi. Super job there. These models, with that massive turret and big gun is what makes the T-34, the T-34. Like the weathering job on it too. Very nice indeed!

Take care, Sgirty

Looks Great! How did you deal with the track length issue? Most ppl who have been building these kits have noticed that the track is either too slack, or too tight?

Hi John. AH yes the old Slack Track story. I did'nt use all the parts on the front idler wheels, so I made up a new axle out of white Plastic Tube stock. From the outside it looks more like the Real T-34. Thankyou for your kind words. Happy Tanking. PS Sorry for the late Reply. Cheers. TA.
