My apologies for not including the building of KATYUSHA the figure.....I'm just not used to documenting such things...
and once I start .... it's hard to stop and take photos

That T-34 shows great attention to detail in following the anime, and replacing one of the fuel tanks with the box. And, your Katyusha figure came out just as nice as your Erwin figure. You're not only very talented, you work very FAST!! -Mike

That's actually a "no tank" area.. it's supposed to be empty..according to what information was available .. the main use of that space seemed like it was for tools... or fitted with a what looked like 4x4s in a rack... though there were some photos with a tank in that position....It's interesting because if there was one in that position.. there was one missing from the other side .. not sure if it was a weight capacity issue... but it was interesting to say the least ... I couldn't find any historical photos with the box... it didn't look like the 4x4 carrier... so I just made a copy of the box
One more to go

....NONA will be in that one
Thanks mentor Sassgrunt

It's turned out great ALPHA. Very nice.
I have booked a T34 from Forgebear for March, I hope it turns out half as good as yours.
The only other thing I would say is you need to replace KATYUSHA's flag with a scrubbing brush 'cos she is gonna be busy keeping her tank clean!

Good Afternoon,
Apologies, Alpha "Show worthy" meant worthy of the Girls und Panzer show in this instance. I have no doubt it is a runner as the T-34's, even scaled down, are excellent at getting around. The tank in it's entirety is a beautiful build that you have there.
regards,
Painless
