I fixed it up some since the last set of photos in the rivet review board.

The kit is DML, and is built OOB (with the exception of the wood bundles and unditching post). I began work about a year and a half ago, basecoated it and then left it in a box for about 11 months. I finished the model over the last few weeks. I'm still not quite happy with how the wheels and track turned out, so any advice on how to do better next time would be greatly appreciated.

There are probably some historical innaccuracies, but I get more than my fill of historic research at work, so when it comes to models I tend to focus more on the artistic aspects of technique and method rather than accuracy.

Let me know what you think, even if you hate it...its the only way I'll get any better

Great looking T34

The wooden beams look great and i like the way you have wrapped them in tarps




Unfortunately the pics you have posted dont really show the running gear off that well so its difficult to see how they turned out , did you dry brush the tracks with a metal colour to on the raised parts ? Ive seen many photos of even the most mud covered tank with the part of the track that come in contact with the ground burnished to bare metal ,however im sure some of the more experienced modellers will give you some more pointers on track painting
