T34/76 WWII Soviet Tank Model

This is still yet another Tamiya kit which again are the kits I prefer as the pieces fit together. There are other companies that make more detailed kits but they always seem to have pieces that don't quite go together.
As for the actual tank it is considered by many to be the best tank of WWII. When the Germans first ran across the T34 it greatly outclassed their tanks and anti-tank guns in firepower and well sloped armor. Plus it had great cross country mobility. But it had many ergonomic, quality control and organizational problems. Rate of fire was very slow, turret layout was horrible. They had few radios so tanks would be hard to organize. They would go in a general direction in a bunch or just scatter. Also quality control was horrible. It was a great design but poorly executed.
Back to the model is a 1942 production version in a fading winter camouflage. I did it that way as it helps bring out details. The tree limbs on the rear sides are to help when stuck in mud or snow.
Last photo shows the early foe the Panzer IV on the right and the mid war foe the Tiger on the left.
