1/72 T-34/85, Elephant
Posted by crossracer on Sunday, May 16, 2004 4:19 PM
Ok, the elephant is pretty much done. the T-34 needs weathering, but is also pretty much done also. Still working out the picture taking progress, need to find the darn instructions. I lov ebuilding in 1/72 because i feel very little need to superdetail. I save these for when i need a break from the super complicated models. Both are built out of box. Both very nice, and i will build again. Improving on these with what i learned before. Enjoy. Bill

Its a revel of germany T-34, and a dragon Elephant. Both fine models. A little work can be made to look outstanding. Like i said i need to add some weathering to the T-34. I do have some complicated super kits i plan on doing, right now it is fun stuff. Here is a picture of a strum tiger that is being finished. enjoy

Yep, dragon strum in 1/72 mated to a revel of germany lower hull. I feel the revel of germany has a better lowere hull and running gear than the dragon. Also if you wish the dragon flexable tracks can be used with the revel running gear. Bill

Good job, glad to see others sending out Braille scale vehicles. I've got the T-34/85 but haven't cracked the plastic on it yet. Got an MW M998 HMMWV and perhaps a Revell King Tiger ausf. B ahead of it. Just wondering if I should try to use PE zimmerit on the KT.

Very tidy builds there Crossracer. Like the look of that Sturmtiger, too. It looks to have exceptional detail.

Nicew job on the braille. That Sturmtiger and Elefant are nicely detailed. Got to start dabbling in braille to break up the monotony of 1/35.

Very nice job. Seems like the 1/72 scale area is becomming very popular lately, with seemingly every manufacturer comming out with something in that scale.

Nice work! I think a bit of a sag on the T34 tracks would have been welcome, but all the same it looks great! I'm currently working on an older 1/76 Fujimi kit of the T34, but have added some hard plastic ESCI/Italeri tracks to it.
