The story is this: Its June 1943, a wet and miserable day on the Eastern Front. Having spent days pushing the Germans back, its nearing the end of another bitter day of fighting. The Russian Tank Crew and the Infantry Tank Riders think they have seen the last of the enemy for the day and are content with their days fighting. Then suddenly sniper fire falls upon them....they must hold the position they have fought so hard for....................
So thats the story, whats the kits:
1) Tamiya 1/48th scale T34/76.
2) Tamiya 1/48th scale Russian Infantry and Tank Crew set.
So how will the build go:
Well there will be a lot of first's in this build for me, ive never made a tank before, ive never done figures before, and ive never done a dio before, infact ive hardley done any military before!!!
With this in mind i intend to keep things rather simple, i will concentrate on getting a good "weathered" finish on the tank, again ive hardly used pigments before so this will be a good opportunity to gain expierience there.
I will attempt to get a reasonable finish on the figures, having never done any before this should prove a good challange!!!!
The dio will be very simple, again never having done one i dont want to bite off more than i can chew on my first attempt.
I have to say this 1/48 scale is simply awsome from Tamiya, the detail is stunning. Im very much looking forward to getting started on this GB tomorrow........i hope you can join me on the journey, Regards to all, Martin
