Good start. But you really need to think about the barrel and hatch hinges for the T-34. The barrel looks too large and the (greenstuff) hinge too crude. Hope you do not take this as an offensce, but this has potential for a real great diorama and it would be a shame if such things would ruin the overall look! |

what scale, or size, are these? I couldn't find a reference.. |
| AONeill | 13 May 2012 2:32 a.m. PST |
I believe those are 28mm your eminence. Does seem rather an oversight to miss scale entirely off their web site. |

I guess they know the scale – and so it's obvious…easy mistake to make really. |

the only clue was the price..talk about ostriches.. |

Patton Museum t34-85. Crude doesn't do it justice. |

That he is using a CD for the circular base is also a clue – shouldn't have to look that hard for it though! |

The T-34 is by Warlord and he hasn't by any means finished with it. |

Great Start !!!  |

Mark's just about finished the base now so will be updating us next week (Triples this weekend). |

As Phil says, the real things are crude as hell and model T-34s are usually nowhere near as 'badly-modelled' as the real ones. This T-34/85 at Bovington suffered from severe mould-slip and flash on the turret and mantlet. You can't really see it in this photo, but somebody went mediaeval with an angle-grinder to clean up the flash before priming:
Life imitating art. :o) |
