Here are my newest updates - my mix of Rusks & Kazaks ( Cossacks ).
This is a 1/72 Revell T80 & a converted Matchbox 1/76th T34. I decided to add a black star instead of the normal red one & changed all the red ones I did into black ones.
Converted commander's turret , added milliput crewmen & 3 one shot missiles.Fuel tanks were modified to make them stronger as they are flimsy in the original kit & will easily break off if handled roughly.
Here are the pics before weathering.
Plasticote grey primer , then plasticote terracotta primer , peat brown washes & light W&n brown drybrush.
Now all I have to do is find suitable 15mm cavalry to convert into Cossacks.
Enjoy

I really like the T-80. I like the colour, I like the black star. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks,Glad you like it Barks,
DeleteThe black Star really makes a difference from the usual Red one. i decided to make my force a kazak ( Cossack) one.A highly mobile force. Sov but not quite.
