Trying to find a Russian WWII flame tank…
Either a KV-8, or a T34 variant.
Sadly neither GHQ or CinC do one. Any help…..much appreciated! |

Don't know about the KV-8. But the battlefront T-34 flame tank option in 15mm is a small change to the machine gun. I doubt you could see the difference in 6mm. |

Yes, the T34 flame tank has substituted the flame thrower for the machine gun. At that scale, not noticeable at all. |

In my experience, once hit with an 88 they all flame. |

In Microscale I'd think you could use a regular tank – the soviet flame tanks aren't markedly different, to the best of my knowledge. The T-34 appears to stick the fame gun out the hull machine-gun port, after all. It does looks like you'd need to add a tiny flame gun to a KV to make the KV-8. |

In 6mm scale hard to tell
For OT-34 would put some smoke/flame coming out of the hull MG
For KV-*'s I would maybe replace the main gun with a 45mm sized gun and put the smoke flame next to it RHS IIRC |
