Trumpeter 1/72 T-34/76 1942 ver.

This is the nice Trumpeter kit of the T-34-76.  It is easy to build, but the tracks needed staples to bind them.  I uses Testors Acyrl paints and I weathered it with oils and washes.  All the hand holds were replaced with wire.

The tracks have beautiful detail.  Simple base adds to the overall look.

Great build all round,nice base to top off a fine build,Cheers.

Nice build, they're decent little kits IMHO. 

 

Trumpeter tracks glue nicely with CA if you do it before you prime or paint them.....Once you do either of those things all bets are off as you are no longer gluing the track, you are gluing whatever you coated it in.

Thanks.  I have some 2 part Loctite super glue on the way.  That will fix the tracks.

If they're painted you still have the same issue, you are not gluing the tracks, you are gluing the paint.
