March 3, 2019Upper hull test fitting.2
March 3, 2019Low-poly gun barrel!3
March 3, 2019Grills.... Time to buy photo-etched ones.4
March 3, 2019Well, I planned this project as training, so kit was cheap and aftermarket should be also be cheap. Also the problem was that there were no grills-only set at that time. So, here is the fitting. The biggest grill isn`t fitting in place.5
March 3, 2019Lower hull. Well, it`s awful. There were no bulkhead, so it`s difficult to glue sides in parallel. Also fenders are not fitting with upper hull and you can see all these holes. (There were 6 main parts of lower hull)6
March 3, 2019But upper hull is OK.7
March 3, 2019More hatches... No sense to make them open, because only driver`s hatch have details inside.8
March 3, 2019._.9
March 3, 2019Tracks. I hope there will be no problems with them.10
March 3, 2019And after fittting all grills are in place. I planed to use PE motor plate, but I changed my mind in the process. Also, the hope that the motor plates of the su-100 and t-34-85 coincide completely, went to ashes. The side grids did not fit in heigh....11
March 3, 2019...and the upper grills in length. And for the motor plate I thinned the plastic and the grille fit in after trimming. On this photo I train to imitate the texture of casting. Here is also a mistake in instructions: the "clickers" for tows.12
March 3, 2019The idea of moving gun on this kit didn`t work. It`s better to glue it in static or you can use my way.13
March 3, 2019If I`m going to restore movement to gun, why don`t add it to upper armor also?14
March 3, 2019Paper clip and magnet will do the trick!15
March 3, 2019Self-tapping screws. Yep. That`s 5 screws as counterweight. Now gun can hold its position.16
March 3, 2019And after sanding and gluing hull I got this. Not bad.17
March 3, 2019Fine.18
March 3, 2019Could be worse.19
March 3, 2019._. What the...I don't know what the engineers who made this kit thought. Maybe "Seems fine, no more efforts"20
March 3, 2019Time to stop and sand all the wheels.21
March 14, 201922
March 14, 2019Dry fit.23
March 14, 2019Didn`t know how wires were connected to smoke launchers. Let it be like this.24

March 17, 2019I don`t know how to wearther models properly yet, but there will be big wheels, so no need to worry about the result.38

July 1, 2019After highlighting t-34 I decided to add more on su-100.42
July 1, 2019And finally, decals. Winter version, so all painting goes to nothing except the experience.43
July 1, 201944
July 1, 2019Some chipping.45
July 1, 2019Looks fine, time to scratch!46
July 1, 2019Looks fine, time to scratch!47
July 1, 2019Oh no.... Seems like I need to add 2-3 more white layers and do less chipping.48
July 1, 201949
July 10, 2019Second layer of white color. Much better now! But I need one extra layer, "03" can definitely say it.50

I did some tests with acrylic paste and sodium bicarbonate, the result is quite good, but needs some darkening.
