T-34/76 1942

this is a fun little kit - simple build but nicely detailed 

simple black primer 

I've popped the hatches (simple kit mod) and selected two of the CMK figures to crew it 

rubber tracks are the only option in the kit, and they take a bit of wrangling to finish well 

hmm, figure painting in progress. Doing this with acrylics and my blends are not going so well! 

considering the next weathering steps... 

first round of pastels/pigments and oils.. 

some more OPR 

taking stock.. think I'll leave this for a few days then take a fresh look at the finish so far
