T34/76 new battler

Post by dgsselkirk »

And here is my new T34/76fresh from Paint shop. This will be a great little battling tank. HL lower hull resin filled for stability, Trumpeter upper, resin cast turret from Russia, Ultimate gearboxes, Metal tracks, sprockets, idlers, Clark board, upgrade speaker (stil have to put amp in) TARR II smoker proportional (still have to adjust tubes for a little more smoke), Tamiya apple, servo recoil. Want to thank my friends MichaelC and Russell for assistance with the construction...

I like it! I just traded a Tamiya KV1 for a DT WSN conversion. It's the 85 though.

Is that the trumpeter turret?

No, it's a heavy resin cast one from Russia. Takes a bit of work to make it work...

You traded a Tamiya KV-1 for WSN??? Wow!

Off to a great start there Selkirk, I love the big hexagonal turret on the obr. 42 model. Can't wait to see you finish it with your trademark magic touch.
