Heng Long T-34 Project

Won’t be long before your buying kits from Ludwig and producing something like this

Love the Camo!

Got the mrs to paint it

Excellent!

Looks ok so far. I do t tend to use mud and pigments. Can repaint it when your bored of it when you use things like that

Think I’m going to have to be really spares with it

[AlexW34]

It’s the chains and cables turn for some paint, playing around with rust colours and a soft lead pencil until I am happy with them

I have a good way of doing those. It’s a massive short cut. I haven’t put any on yet

You got a cheat? They are taking me ages!!

Steel gear box, drive wheels, idler wheels & tracks fitted. Had to move the track tensioner a tad to get a more realistic look with the tracks. Only temporary, will sort the suspension out as the drive wheels and idlers are far too high The weight of her now!!

Really starting to enjoy this weathering malarky Front spare track done

At least your enjoying it. I hate everything about it untill I get the finished product. Though since my first build now being finished start to Finnish I am starting to like it more. When I was just doing mere upgrades I wasn’t into it so much.

I wasn’t enjoying it when I messed up the first paint job Now I’m seeing results I want to see I’m really enjoying it

Markings done, could not find actually pictures of 182. So I found a few similar ones and adapted it until I was happy. Wanted the cross but didn’t want the band of white on the upper edges. Thought it would have been too much white. Also fixed the ‘ride height’ Simple fix with plastic tabs added into the gaps where the suspension arms rest Now to wait for more paint for the drive wheels and idler wheels. Then to seal the turret and start more weathering

Pretty happy with my first attempted at ‘chipping’
