1/35, I assume. 

Fantastic job! The weathering is excellent.

I knew when I said olive green that was wrong.  So I thought I better explain a little better.

Thanks!

This is the best explanation of the processes that I also use. The subtlety of the modulation process and how many layers of lightened color determine the "age" of your paint job.

This is well documented and you did a perfect job of explaining it. This is pure gold right here.  :)

MrT,

Just wondering( if it's not too late) if you would be willing to give a brief synopsis of how you did the treads on this build, I like the way yours came out.  I'm nearing the finish line with a T34 1941 in 1/72 by Dragon. By the way, it's only taken me two years to get to this point Embarrassed

I'll have to build up some tracks to demonstrate, but in a nutshell I painted the tracks Tamiya Nato Black. Then a light coat of Model Master Gun metal.  Applied a pigment wash a redish brown color.  When dry dry brushed with gun metal and then steel.

STZ stands for Stalingradski traktorni zavod, or Stalingrad Tractor Plant.
