Above and beyond reasonable Sire...it's the kind of weathering that doesn't steal away from the tank...I don't know what you did to get it to where it's at... but that's how IMO it should be ...maybe you should name her Goldie locks ..like her in search of a fine bed to sleep in.. your paint job is not too hard... not too soft...but just right

Hey Canned... I think Heng Long got rid of the trims on the TX because of the 2.4's sensitivity... My T-34s really don't need it...even on long straight runs... they rarely veer off ...and if they do ...just a little nudge corrects the path
Are you going to put metal tracks on this baby.... if you do... I recommend the Mato set... Dave has them I think... they have better traction than the stock Heng Long plastic or Metal tracks ..as I have both of those
I modified my suspension for the Heng Long as noted by Phil on his T34 thread (springs only..not the blocks) ...not on all the axles..just the two behind the lead bogie on each side.. so the flatter Heng Long tracks will grab better...My other T34 has the Mato tracks... the tread pattern really grabs on any surface I highly recommend those
Happy Tanking Sire
