Jakko,
yes, it wouldn't take much to open them up, but there's nothing underneath.............

Maybe that’s why they’ve moulded them shut, because they didn’t feel like including the transmission?Comment

Jakko,
no interior at all - the only inside detail is on the hatches!

At least there’s that — plenty of kits don’t even give you hatches with detail on both sides

Hull sprayed with basecoat - The AK3 Russian Green sprays well, diluted about 50/50 with tap water...............
Started on the figures - standing figure is the tank commander ( Zvezda ) the other four are the ICM figures. These were part of a T-34/76 boxing. The /85 turret is larger, and I may have difficulty in fitting all four, so one may be consigned to the reserve bench
The only clean up done so far is the joint faces - the moulding seams will be cleaned up next - I find it easier when I have something larger to hold onto.......

Dave. Nice progress Enjoying the buildComment

Moving on well.Comment

Turret finished, primed & basecoated - I've left off the vision prisms in the commanders cupola - when I fit the figure, they won't be seen .
Figures assembled sans heads & headgear, 4 primed Russian Uniform Khaki, the tanky black.................
Next up a bit of detail painting on these figures - I'll have to break out the tiny brushes & magnifier.

That is looking very good.
Although I'm normally a 1/72 man I've had a look on Amazon and I can pick one up for £19. On the one hand I'm very tempted but on the other hand I know the reaction I might get.........
Keep up the good work.

True but I know what my mum has bought me for my big birthday in December.
That said I'm still perplexed as to how she knew which website to go to and what my password was.
It was also interesting to see that she worked out how to apply my reward points on the site and even change the delivery address to hers!!??!!??
All in all very odd and sounds like a mystery for one of Agatha Christie's supersleuths.....

I knew I had an AM decal sheet, but couldn't put my hand on it.................... I moved a shhet of emery paper & found it! Microscale 1/35 13-7 Soviet Armor Markings
Not sure about the Soviet Navy flags, or the parade stars, but I'm sure that one of the patriotic slogans will be used ( luckily there is a translation of them! )
