Hi Ostrowski, Always good to cross the path of kindred mind, I've been hoarding 1/35 from quite a few years and start to paint them 2 or 3 years ago. Like you I've got soviet, but also U.S and german forces everything in small numbers. Your Russians are a pretty impressive force already, congrats !!!
I bought recently this very same T34 from Tamiyia, those old kits are really nice for almost the price of the kit in 1/56!! Or even cheaper like the panzerII whose building was really easy. Which rules are you using? I will follow your progress Cheers Alberto awashofbourbon.blogspot.com |

That is an excellent job on that large scale vehicle! |

Thanks Alberto, Yes, looks like we are working on very similar projects. I particularly like your KV2 and the Russian sailors – they look great. Let's check in from time to time with one another's blogs to see how we are progressing! All the best. |

Thank you Ostrowski !! Sorry for insisting but I'm really curious about the rules you're using. |

Hi Alberto, Sorry, forgot to say. In the past we used some kind of home made skirmish rules, but these were very slow to play. Recently we have been using Rapid Fire, but are toying with the idea of using Bolt Action in the future. |

Thanks for the input!!
There's a bunch of rules but when I started with the 1/35 project I though also to using Bolt Action maybe with some amendments.
I also found this link where Battlegroup is used with a huge table. The game is beautiful: link |

I think I had that model, but sold it at a swap meet. Good job. |
