If I had to pick just one tank as being my favourite of WW2 it would be the T34. I love the shape and the raw, industrial finish of the parts as well as the impact they had on tank design and the outcome of the War.
I've long had the 35th scale Dragon, Bedspring armour version in the stash and Ill get to that one day but given my tight build schedule I turned my attention to the downscaled version I picked up for $5 at a swap and sell and would build myself a 72nd scale bedspring armour (that wasn't actually bedsprings..) T34/85 to add to the collection.
I'd been given a set of Russian colours from the new range of ATOM paints by Ammo range and wanted to trial them on a model, so this subject seemed to perfectly fit the bill.
