Well its good to win battles my friend !!!! looks good so far. I only have a small fear on the tow cable beeing a bit thicker than it has to be for the scale.but cannot tell for sure from picstures .

Great job mate, you really turn it in to something nice!

I agree with Costas on the tow cable....it looks a little thick!

I like the fender damage especially, and overall it looks very good. Looking forward to seeing your weathering, etc. The tow cable is a tad robust, to say the least, but who knows, maybe the crew swiped it from a KV-1....

I know your pain I build maquttes as well an i am currently working on a panzer 38 and its no joke ive been long hours through out the night sealing crack and making parts of the hull that werent cut pricisly but its a good thing when a person meets a challange and grabs it bythe you know what. good job ill like to see it finished. :-)

Thanks for replies, i already made a Pz 38(t) ausf.G , you can see it on Armorama ON DISPLAY, its diorama named "Photographieren".
Trust me its a nice kit and worth a while, but this T-34 is nothing similar!

And about GWS primer spray paint, its available in every shop which sells Games Workshop games (Warhammer for example)

Ola Mirko

With Interest I have followed the built of this vehicle. Seeing the built hearing about the problems I say definately you have won. and together with some good weathering and teh figures added you will have a wonderful centerpiece of a dio. Some washing filtering and dusting and you should have a stunning tank.

Mirko,
I surrender! Don't shoot
It's looking really good. I eagerly anticipate seeing it weathered. Should really bring it to life. Best of luck as you continue on your journey to completion.
