Hi
  Nice tank

                I think the DR had a formation of captured T34s, I would be surprised if most of the divisions serving on the eastern front didn't have a few

Thanks Jim, I had seen a couple of static models on the net, one of which was a T-34/75 with a panzer storage bin on the back of the turret. This gave me the idea and i  guess that it was very possible that these field mods were carried out on later MK's of T-34's, though photo's of german T-34's seem to be limited to the 10 or so pictures that are on several web sites, so mine is all guess work. Glad you like it.

Its a brilliant model-
The Germans were very good at pressing enemy armour into service for themselves
There are numerous pictures of T34's Shermans(including fireflies) and all sorts of allied armour in german service.
Apparently they perticularly liked the bren gun carriers- they mounted anti tank rocket launchers on them.
Apparently the Russians also used German captured armour so you do a Russian Panzer iv

Nice T34, and I like the ideas you have used to change it and "Field" modify it for german use, great idea and great work.
