Early KV-1 1939

Post by Skat »

Hey guys,

This is my latest build. A KV-1 early 1939 from Trumpeter. Very nice and enjoyable kit. Also my first figure ever :)

PS. Oops, it seems that I forgot to add the mud on back and front hull before taking the photos.

Hope you like it.

Cheers!
Chris

That's a fantastic build Chris. Well done bud. Aside from what you pointed out about the mud it looks like you did everything right. Even with the missing mud it's awesome.
I love all that fender damage and that chain. :th: :th: :th:

Wow! What did you use to make the mud; it looks great :thumb2: The cast texture on the mantlet area and the figure are superb too :D Really awesome model you've done there, Chris.

Hey,

Thanks guys.

@Panzermeister36: I simply mixed vallejo pigments with their pigment fixer but it works with white glue and water too.
