Hi, Always a pleasure to see your work. You just keep on providing more inspiration to the rest of us. Are those the kit's decals there? They look good. The paint job and weathering are fantastic.

Take care, Sgirty

Hallo Jurjen. Great work on your KV-1 M1941 so far. I like how you chose that early gun mantle with the 76.2mm L-11 gun.

Alan, if you want one of these Trumpeter KV kits, just let me know. PM me here, or see my website. I have all 4 KV-1, and KV-2 kits in stock.

There will be yet 1 more KV-1 M1942 Cast Turret , and an early KV-2 released by Trumpeter in 2006 ! Personally, I cant wait to they come out

Cheers !!

Jurjen.
When I build these,I shave off the locating pegs on the appliques,so I don't bother to open holes in the hull.For your fix,a quick swipe of putty into the slot. After it dries,sand down,and repaint.mud over that will hide a slight paint mis match. (++) (++)
