Drum damage alone is impressive! Do you get them in this condition or "make it so"?

I have a bunch of storage (trash) that never appear in pictures. So, very nice work!

I really like that camo scheme. The barrel bands reminds me of a German WW2 camo scheme. Using camo putty I wouldn't think that camo scheme would be too difficult to achieve even using rattle cans

This version is a 1945 Flattened turret .............

Luckilly for Mr Hugill I have a vast selection of spares for these Soviet thingos!
Looking at the box art of one of the Miniart kits, the rear fuel drums are T72 versions rather than T55 ones. The ring on each side is a giveaway.

My munted T55 ones can go back into the darkness..........
The T72 drums I have fit well if a little close together , and on the remains of the mounts I carved off when I did the Syrian roughie recently, they will be robust enough, annnnnd they allow the drums to clear the exhausts. Win-win
The overall look is pretty cool, the mix of old & familiar with more modern bits.

I moved this as its timeline places it in the Modern era.
If a 1945 tank with add-ons can be considered modern

Green is not just Green!.......green is, but 4BO isn't.
4BO is not the so called Modern Green, but the Modern green when faded & messy, looks like 4BO............
Kermit is green, and apparently its not easy being it, but hes not a Tank,
His Mrs IS a tank, but shes pink..............not green, of any shade ............
Unless with envy, as she was occasionally !

Annnyyy way, a Green Russian tank has many shades, more than 50, which is a scale of Grey, not green...............which is an entire 'nother discussion
