| I Bought the T34 as there seems to be alot of panzers out there !- i wanted something al ittle different, plus the tank was bought really as a big boys toy, a plaything !- i have often considered buying a huge tamiya truck and trailer or a tank but was always put off by the cost.....
when i saw this trumpeter tank and the price on ebay then i thought what the hell !- having helped my pal do the bits for his tank diarama i suppose my ' leaning ' towards getting a tank rather than a truck was strengthened.... but at the end of the day it is really just a plaything !
i will however make a diarama for the tank, having helped with the block stone one for the friends sherman, i am now planning to make a brick building diarama for my tank, the same ' bombed out' building style backdrop/ diarama but something different, - also producing some accessories such as jerry cans and drums and sandbags for the diarama, , i have also just bought some large scale trees from an architectural modelling supplies place, - big scale trees, brass armatures and all ready to go in the diarama, - as per usual i have too many half completed projects on the go right now so have no idea when i will ever complete the diarama but most the bits are there now !- just need to complete the tank and weathering too !- just not enough hours in the day !
