I'm new here so be gentle.This is a simple weathering job I did on my Pro version T34.

I'm also just learning how to take pics to post so hopefully these work out-

I like your work. My stuff tends to be showroom new. As far as jumping in with pictures and such, you are doing a fine job. We have some amongst us who although long time forum members, have not graced us with photos.

Wow! So much for New Year's resolutions about not slandering siblings, I guess. Maybe I'm just shy about garnering public acclaim, (more than still being too inept to learn how to post photos).

Anyway MrChef, I want to second the applause for the work you're doing on your Soviet armor. Any photos of actual vehicles I've seen tend to look SO abused that our models really cry out for more-severe weathering than Allied armor.

I never mentioned names or even relatives. Wow, you seem to be overly sensitive.

Good evening, well, for a beginner, I think you're getting off to a good start

Superb work, it's a tank that has lived, well done.

looks great to me.
That stuff holding the logs to the side looks like something we used to call "Silent Wire".......used in the bedding & furniture industries.

Nice ooey-gooey marsh mud! I also like the unsticking logs with one end chopped with an axe, and the others sawed--just like it would be done in real life.
Better strap those ammo boxes down, or the next tank rider will heave them off to get a warmer spot on the engine deck!
Sweet work,
Mike.

Woo Hoo! Here's another veteran Russian WWII tank! Can you show it off at the country club? I'd bet at least a few folks there would be impressed at what else the chef can do well.

Thank you all so much. I'll keep posting up pics. Now I'm working on lighting and backgrounds. I have not altered the pics in any way in hopes in the future I may be good enough for the Tank of the Month post with one of my tanks. I have a few more tanks to go.

Thanks Colemancollector for noticing those details. They seemed minute when I was doing them but I knew what I did and it's cool you noticed.

Haha Herr Dr. Professor I'm not sure what they might think, maybe that I'm loony or just a big kid at heart. Truth is this hobby is great for destressing from work. I might have to go wreck a golf course sand trap one day though.

"I might have to go wreck a golf course sand trap one day though." Hey hey! Do any of you RC tankers from the states want to join in a debacle that would make it to the (online) newspapers (after the arrests)?
