Paintwork, weathering, accessories, position of figures: everything just fine!

Wow!! God, I'm so jealous! Still I'm but a baby in modelling terms. I be a toddler soon hopefully. Then a child. Then I might even make teenager! lol
Great work Robert
Ps you bought the figures separately?

Do you do YouTube videos? I've got so many questions. What's the part hanging in the back of the turret for example?

On both sides in the grab rails, you mean? They're two links of spare track.

@Danny, many thanks, you make a good job !!! no one is born a master.... I don't have a YT channel or similar, no drive and time for that, I'm already so slow with the build of a kit, also patience and research take time. On the back of the turret are lashing straps for a tarpaulin or something similar (is that what you mean?). I always make research and watch historical photos and film footage to get ideas that can be applied to the model. The two top figures are from Master Box set MB3568, the driver is a left over one from an old T-34 Tamiya kit (which I never build because of a missing sprue) [img1] [img2]

@jakko and @Robert H, you see the 6 very small u shaped parts? One set angled upwards and the bottom set angled downwards? Where the decal is? Or would be if followed the Airfix guide? Where it says 329 on the drawings, you have a square item on top of the small u shaped parts. Are they spare track as Jakko suggests? They're not the same colour as the rest of the track. I don't think. Actually I think it is a tarp as you said Robert. And you should know 🙂
By the way that's the first t34 pic I've seen with the fuel tank slots without the drums attached. I just watched a Russian film called Iron Fury with a T34 that was sans fuel tanks and it threw me for a moment. Since beginning modelling I'm constantly looking at the vehicles and boring my brother about it all. 😂

Do you mean parts M6 in steps 11 and 13? Those are the loops that the straps go through that Robert mentions. In the photo he posted above of the real tanks, the rolled-up tarp (or whatever) is tied to them by means of the three straps you can see on it.

@Danny - Jakko described it well what the part no. M6 are and were used for. But I don't know what you mean... like "329", which square item?? Could you provide the parts and building steps numbers to make it a bit more specific? another pic of the rear view of a museum T-34, mounting brackets for the rear fuel barrels and a attached tarp on the rear of the turret [img1]

I think Danny means the turret number on the rear, per page 10 of the Airfix kit instructions, though the number is actually 342 🙂.

Yes the decal number is 342. I'm sorry I didn't get notifications for your replies. I can see now it is a tarp on the back of your turret Robert. On my build I'm just having the decal but the small u shaped brackets need to be added after the decal and some painted white to make it look realistic.
I hope I get as good as the both of you. One day maybe. 🙂
