Cold war T-64 on the prowl


Recommended Posts

Dear Fellow Modellers

 

A few photos of my Trumpeter T-64.  Whilst we in the UK were fighting to get the opposed piston 2 stroke L60 to work in the Chieftain, ironically the Russians were having awful trouble getting their similar engine to work in the T-64.  In the case of the 5TD engine the cylinders are horizontal so helping the ultra-low profile of the tank.

These tanks were amongst the main protagonists in the terrible Ukrainian conflict.

 

Hope you like?

Hi Andrew,

 

I'm not into post-WWII stuff much, but I do appreciate a good job when I see one. And that's a good job.

I really rate the diorama too. Nice bit of roadway and grass there.

 

Can you tell me what the actual 'leaves' are made from in your trees? Not the hairy twine stuff, the green bits.

 

Rearguards,

Badder

Thank you all for your kind comments.  I'm glad you're not too bored with my background scene - yet?

 

Dear Badder, I bought a tree making kit from 'Treemendous' at the Nationals.  I guess the leaves are like chopped herbs that you pour on the brush and branches
