Graeme's Dragon T-34/76 Model 1941 1/35

[The Smythe Meister]

Hi Graeme ,
That`s looking mighty fine mate.... the etch and Barrel certainly add that extra "something",
I look forward to seeing the paint going on..... no pressure of course :money-face::tears-of-joy:!!
Andy,
(And,of course,my condolences for your Aunt.)

[Graeme C.]

John & Andy, thanks for your kind words, getting back to the bench is a good idea, a bit of something I enjoy.

John, Lee, Si & JIm, Thanks for the kind words & encouragement.
I've just got back from Scotland, at my Aunt's funeral unfortunately, driving through a fair bit of wind & rain, not as bad as Lee's snowstorms though. I should be able to get a bit of bench time & get a bit more done.

Sorry for your loss Graeme

[Graeme C.]

Rick, Gerry & Lee thank you for your kind words, progress has been a bit slow over the last week or two.
All I've managed to do are the two tow ropes & some of the individual track links, hope to get a bit more done soon.

[Graeme C.]

Progress has been to say the least, slow, thanks to a number of things, including another Aunt's funeral in Scotland.
Here is where it is, everything built up on the hull & turret, the track links took a lot of sanding to remove the sprue attachments & ejector pin marks, which were on the flat face of the track.


The first coat of primer is done today, pictures of that later!

That's some good progress Graeme, those track parts can seem soul distorting at times , but the result must be worth it .:thumb2:

[Lee Drennen]

Graeme. Sorry for your lost of your Aunt. Your progress is looking good and there’s no rush remember this is a Hobby life is first.

[GerryW]

Sorry about the family loss. That is coming along well.

[Graeme C.]

John, Lee & Gerry, thanks, life gets in the way of things sometimes.
A bit more done, primer & pre-shade!


Next up, 4BO green!

[Guest]

Bring it on ! :nerd:

Graeme

Firstly sincere condolences on your loss.

Secondly, apologies as I missed the start of this.

Looking good so far. Will be following this with interest having just bought my first T-34.

ATB.

Great work on the pre shade :thumb2:

[GerryW]

Certainly 'getting there', I'm intrigued by the pre-shade, and wondering if it'll work with a hairy stick:thinking:
