It looks as if you are using the Carr's 188 Solder Paint to create weld lines. I am not familiar with that paint. I found some explanation of the product on Gwydir Valley Models web site;

Is it thick like a paste?

Hi Doc - Happy new year!
The Carr's solder is for the brass and steel parts . The welds are my own concoction of dissolved silver plastic sprue / solvent , rolled into thin sasauges and gllued on .

A version of the very rare(by soviet standards of the day)T34 with the first main gun before the T34 that we all know.
You do very good work Mr Blimp

"...dissolved silver plastic sprue / solvent , rolled into thin sasauges and gllued on." Yes! A tried-and-true modeling technique that requires patience, but can go quite well. Good job!

Truly great work blimp, I love those early welded turrets. It's a really intimidating scratch build, but yours has turned out spectacularly. I'm really impressed by the brass work on those fenders too, looking forward to seeing more!
