Trumpeter 1/16 T 34/76 Model 1942: The relationship between scale and weathering
At some point I got curious about how it is like to build one of the 1/16th scale AFV monsters. Trumpeter's T-34 that comes with interior detailing satisfied my curiosity. It is a solid and easy AFB build thanks to the large size of parts. [...]
