Whenever I was stuck or bored with the F-104J Eiko, this T-35 from Zvezda was a nice distraction. Over the past 4 months it nicely came together, with only a few more days of effort left. Love the size of this thing, probably the biggest tank in my collection. It's even larger than the KV-122 it will proudly park next to in the display case.

Thank you Rui and Ben. I hope all will go well with the final muddy stage.

No new photos today, however oils and rust are done, towing cables and rings are attached. I should apply more mud now, but want to do it carefully.

Weathering complete. I would still like to add a few accessories, some bags and machine guns before taking photos with a proper camera.

Very cool, I like that. I've been considering building the Hobbyboss kit shortly 👍

Thanks James! Don't know how good the Hobby Boss version is, this one was good enough, solid fit all around and reasonably priced. I can only recommend it.

Last step ahead - attach all accessories and of to the photo shoot.

Looks great with all that dirt!
Nice idea to damage/remove some of the skirts so you can see the work you've done on the wheels. 👍

Thank you Guy and WhiteGlint! I think removal of the side skirts is not something seen in the field, except for the removal of rear skirts in later versions to avoid build-up of mud. However I agree, it's the only way to show some of the wheels, that would be invisible otherwise - and it does look more interesting, dare I say.
