Looks like it's been cutting up rough at Kursk All in all, the muddy, battered battlefield look is so convincing that I could imagine a partner saying: "Clean that thing off, before you bring it in the house!!"

Exactly!

Great work with the weathering and stowage, you've really nailed the essence of a dirty, weary war machine.

A question though, certainly not intended as a criticism and not solely directed at you; but why are Soviet tanks in Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS markings so popular? It's strange seeing all these T-34s and KVs with balkenkreuzs and swastikas, especially since they generally don't have the other German modifications (stowage bins, cupolas, radios, machine guns, etc.) to match the iconography. I'm sure it's just me (because I don't understand the overwhelming popularity of Nazi materiel just to begin with), but I find it strange.

Looks great good job

Thank you for the compliment I will post some pictures of the interior when I have time.

Looks very nice. I have one myself and would like to see what type of electronics you are using and did you change the gear boxes when you went to metal tracks?

Thank you no I have yet to change the gear boxes since I switched over to metal tracks but the tank actually operates were quite smoothly with the stock boxes. I know it's only a matter of time before the stock plastic boxes fail but for the time being they worked rather impressively
