Great weathering Costas ..... love all the beaten and worn look achieved by rusting and oil spills .. both on the fuel truck and the body of the T35. The rag with stains is a nice touch as well. The dio base is excellent .. thos branches are amazing ..must look into these myself. What kit is the fuel truck? Looks great.

Dear all friends , thanks a lot for ur feedback and good advice.

Some things i may have missed as u correctly say are a result of missing information during research, and lack of good pictures for the specific truck.

For the exhaust: after u mention it , i did notice on some pictures that its on the other side, but hey in war time service units can make some alternations i guess!!! :-) :-)

For the chassis, hmm i didnt knew that it had to be gloss black, since i have read many times , that russians did not have the supply and equipment power of Germans for example , and unless vehicles where from the initial factory production , all after them , had many differencies , even in coloration, and also , seen trucks like this (models) with no black chassis , but anyway ... with all the mad and bad use this truck had i think i can justify total discoloration of the lowert part of the truck . :-) :-) :-)

Now for the side racks. Here we can talk about it cause the reference material said that the russians changed to wooden parts due to metal outtage, but this was done partially and in different stagwes, with the cabin parts to be the first , and later some other parts. Also that every truck and also T35 were different one from the other since many parts of them were made in many different factories , till they get alltogether, So there were trucks with the side racks metal for sure.

The shine on the rear tire was due to my handling and not the flash and is already corrected..

Dio area is something 90 x 70 cm, and the scale is indeed 1/35. The T35 was ICM, and the fuel track is ..hmm i think from FORT, if i am not wrong with all these russian kits !!!!

I had amny many issues with the making of T35 since bad fit was very bad in most parts and i had my kit came with many small parts broken in more than 2 pieces and i had to recover or scratch them. But if u ask me...well i d build that happily again. I think its a beauty ......
