T34 or T34-85?

David where is you come up with the Su 100 Nice tanks Thanks I have been looking for one

It's a Trumpeter model kit. It was a tough decision to buy it since I only used all the parts of the upper hull.

Somewhere east of the Ural mountain, a Russian factory is building more tanks to face the German's panzers :-) These are what I am working on. I will put the HL 6.0S inside both of them.

Such a coincidence! I am current working on the Russian tanks as well. One of them is the SU-100. The other one is the T34/76 1943 with the hexagonal turret. I took the turret out of old Trumpeter kit.

Oh great... there's options!? And just when I thought the T34-85 I have incoming would just need a little weathering...

Here's one option I'll be working on, a T-34/76 1940-1942 turret conversion. I got this one off eBay from a seller it St Petersburg, RU. It'll be my first servo elevation and hopefully cannon recoil project. I'm using a 6.1S board for it.

If anyone wants to know, this turret will require MAJOR work. The exterior looks okay, but the interior has nothing; no place to attach a turret ring, surface is just a blob. But, if I can get it to work, it'll be an IR battle force to be reckoned with. I won't have to take anything from my /85 turret, so I can always go back.

I noticed the T34 that is coming soon looks a lot like a T34-85 is the picture wrong or the description. Either would be great I am looking for the T34 though 😊👍

It is a T34-85. The use of T34 is generic for the tank just like the name Abrams or Sherman of which there are numerous variations as well.

There are aftermarket conversion kits that can backdate the HL T34 to older versions so you have options.
