Hi Guys!

I had finally some spare time to work on my T34/76 from Dragon. The kit is build OOTB except for some home made electrical wiring. I hope you like the result sofar. At the moment I'm working at the details like the tools and I'm also planning to make a large red flag for over the enginedeck. For easy recognation from the air. The tank will be in a small dio on a sand road. If you see some mistakes or inaccurasies, please let me know












Thanks for your time to view!

Jurjen

great build,like that dirty look.nice touch of oil stains and rust
you have to explain to me some time how you do that chipping
it looks very good.[ on the dutch site please]i see nothing that can be improved.what will be in the rack??.

greetz jeroen.

Hi Jeroen,

Thanks mate! I think I will add a jerrycan and maybe some other items. Don't know yet. I will show you the way I chip on KMK alright

ok,that is allright with me,,a live performance :-)

great work jurjen... nice weathering especially the dusty look on the hull and turret.

apart from the cupola and the large boxes on the side, are there any other differences from a regular t34? perhaps you could open some hatches and the stowage box lids, and add some figs?

ta.

Jurjen,

Wow. I tried to find something to critique, but am having a hard time of it. How did you do the oil stains on the back? They look fantastic. Also, are the German marks painted on? How about the rust on the lift ring (I hope this is the correct term)? Did you use pastels or paints to achieve this? What did you use to do the thin wires running to the light? Thanks for sharing!

Okay, I've thought of a critique...If anything, it's too dirty. Maybe the Germans need to give their tank a bath! :-) :-) :-)

Awesome build my friend! That is perfect! Very well built, painted and weathered! A fantastic machine! Congratulations!
Cheers and happy modelling!

Nice work,I have only one question/critique.
To my eye the remaining headlight looks cloudy,is this the stock part? maybe some dirt or mud splashed on it would give it a reason to look cloudy (milky).

Hi Guys!

Thanks for all the comments.

@Mojimbo. The main difference is that the Germans added an Copula and upgraded the tank with their own accesoires. Like a Notek light and toolboxes. So there wasn't really big differences. It had been intesting to show some open boxes but I'm unfortunately too late now to add them. Next time!

@ Armorguy. The oil stains were done with Tamiya smoke, (can't find an other reason to use this 'paint') gloss black enamel paint and White Spirit. The markings are the decals wich come with the kit. I applied them with Micro Sol and set. Very useful stuff! The rust mark was done with Mig pigments. Those two rusty colours and when they were applied I blended them in with white spirit. For the headlights I used some copperwire.

@ Jordan. When I took the photos the tools and accessoires were all drying so everything is now at her place. I only need to make a german flag.

Prato and Franchois: Thanks!

@ Carl. Good point! I will dirty the headlight more up.

Things to do now:
-Making german flag.
-Give the tracks a more metallic finish
-Tone down the oil stains.
-Diobase.
-Dirty-up headlight.

Thanks for all your comments!
