Excellent paint job, weathering, and rust effects. Is it my eyes, or do the rivets seem to be a bit oversized? link |

PSC vehicles tend to sometimes have some of the finer details a bit oversized. |

Its 15mm… any smaller you wont see the rivets! |

Great work on a classic AFV. |

If you think PSC rivets are over sized you must have never looked at a battlefront model with rivets. |

Agree with Mike, the rivets are a bit overdone. Looks like the tank has a bad case of acne. But GHQ puts rivets and similar details on 6mm, so I suppose it's what the people want. |

Rivets definitely over sized. PSC US and Allied halftrack kits both have highly exaggerated (and incorrect) rivet and panel line details. |

Well yeah, but it's 15mm. If I wanted exactness, I'd buy Dragon 1/35. I just want to see the rivets on a famously riveting tank. |

Now you've mentioned it I can totally see the Pinhead thing in the first two pictures, but I think they look fine in the last picture – which is far closer to the angle you'll be looking at them from when they're on the tabletop. |

perhaps people should see an actual physical model first before passing judgement on the rivets…..bit radical, bit left field, i know.
the one sitting on my desk looks fine
the reason we made a big thing of the rivets was a lot of people told us they didnt like the Zvezda version because it had a distinct lack of rivets and could we do one with rivets |

Always tricky judging things from a greatly enlarged picture ( that image must be at least x10+) I know people will say Im talking do doos but big pics do over emphasise some things on a model ,looks the biz to me :)

Yes… Given the model is just a few centimeters long, a pic that size doesnt really show the effect correctly I guess. Should have put a penny next to it to show how tiny it is! ;) Personally, I think it works well on the tabletop, and looks like a 38t. Not sure what else you can ask for from a 15mm plastic kit. :) |

And easy fix if one does think the rivets are a bit too prominent. A light sanding will fix that. |

I actually quite like the rivets. Easier for a wash to take hold to them. |

I think the zoom over emphasizes the rivets, I have a platoon of these tanks and never thought they were out of reasonable proportion,, |
