Russian T-30 for my latest dio "to the front"
Posted by waterboy on Saturday, August 2, 2008 12:44 PM

Spent some time in the bunker today working on my Maquette T-30 Russian light tank that I'm using in my next dio.  As most of you know, Russian WWII armor was usually a wide variation of green. However there was a few exceptions.  I did some reseach and found that some T-30's had a different camo scheme on the Leningrad front in the fall of 1941. Heres a color profile of one such vehicle.


Heres my version.

I still have alot of detail work and weathering to go, but the basic paint job is done. Let me know what you think. :D
