Another addition to my Russian collection, KV-1 from Trumpeter. Finished it in just 10 hours of labor.

See it here!

Wow bilib ako! Expert ka na siguro! Me, I'm still having trouble with my Sturer Emil & T-34/85 :-)

Hi Shonen,

You did a Very nice and clean build and it took you only 10hrs. One thing I noticed is that the Trumpeter decals seem to be thick -- it looks embossed.

Cheers

Thanks guys! The decals are kinda thick nga. I added several coats of decal softener, pero makapal pa rin

Don't worry about my decal comment...its just because I have a KV-2 and I guess it would have the same decal quality/features. Your kit looks very very good naman even with the thick decal...

Cheers

Was planning to get another one (heavy cast turret version). Kailangan ko mairesolve yung decal problem na yon.

Posts pics of your KV2!

I was supposed to build it after the T-34, but the dark side got the better of me. I'll be building the Brummbar muna -- so the KV-2 is still in the box . When I build the KV-2, I'll probably be hand-painting some of those Russian slogans and advertisements...

Been a while (maybe 2 years) since i last posted at this forum. Wow, how we've grown in numbers. Saw the pics and it looks great. Aren't you going to dirty it up a little. Looks good though even without the weathering.

Yep, only minimal. Not very found of weathering :-)

Nice to see you back! How are you? Not many are posting here in the forums.

Been really busy when i landed on a new job Y2003. Mostly out of town trips. Well, i'm back for good. Hope to see more great work from you guys. Cheers!
