A couple of years ago the local boys came up with an idea for a team EW tournament. It would be a smaller 1250 pt affair. I excitedly put together a new Soviet list. This would be a good excuse to paint up some of those T-35s I had been eyeing for awhile.
Unfortunately, one person canceled after another until the whole affair was forgotten. I did manage to complete the new Soviet tank list. I never have played it...
 |
| Most Soviet players list their progress in infantry stands. Mine was measured in MG turrets. |
 |
| T-28 Platoon. |
 |
| I tried out a few new weather techniques when I built these. |
 |
| Tiny tanks! |
 |
| I used Panzer putty for the camo pattern on this little guy. |
 |
| Not sure why, but the decals on his one came out looking pretty bad. I did my usual: gloss-decal-setting solution- gloss, but that didn't seem to help. |
 |
| The artillery! |
 |
| I think I went a little too heavy with the dust effect on these guys. Also finished them and realized I had forgotten decals! |
 |
| Drive closer! I want to shoot them with my pistol! |
 |
| Longer than a King Tiger! |
 |
| Quite a variety in size with this list. |
 |
| When I opened one of my boxes of T-35 they were missing the side tracks! I emailed BF about getting the parts and was told they were waiting on a production run. I had two wait over a year, but they did eventually send me two more boxes of T-35s. I may have gotten frustrated with BF from time to time, but they always seem to come through in the end! |
In addition to all those T-35s I have some up-gunned/up-armored turrets for my T-28. It would not be too difficult to bring things up to a higher points level. The project is on hold for now. I may come back to it some day.
