Meet Olga,

[Airfix Modeller Freak]

I can't wait to see this one finished. The figures look really great (as they always are) and when this dio is put together it will look great

I do have a fascination with Russian armor myself, Though crew comforts were all but null , mechanical reliability and fighting performance were high on the scale, couple that with copious numbers and you have a formidable opponent indeed:eek:.............Jim:oops: I know, I know, our stuff is more technologically advanced but with all our budget cuts and all their massive building up of late I don't think that's a matter of importance any longer View attachment 125591

There was one russian tank that was feared by both it's enemies and operators. It was known for being extremely tough and it possessed a huge gun. Unfortunately, when it fired, the recoil often knocked the loader over inside- after a while they assigned smaller guys in those :D

Hi Monica just caught upon this sorry for not seeing your beamoth earlier.


From what I've seen and read she's awesome, love the paintwork effects and weathering you have achieved ( nothing hard for your talents eh)


Never done a Russian tank as well armour was never my thing but I'm getting there slowly but surely.


Been off sick for a while so not getting much modelling done of late.


By the way my mums called Olga ( and she's a brute too !!!!!


Regards

That's pretty much perfect Moni! The figures will complement it really well.


Perhaps the dio could be entitled


" Heroic Soviet Forces Fight Off Giant Fascist Cats "? :P
