Category: Armor
Name of Build: SMK prototype
Kit manufacturer: Trumpeter / Zvezda
Scale: 1/35
Description
As there were no plastic kits available of this kit i took 2 x Trumpeter KV-1 kits and spliced them together to add an extra 3rd to the total length. I then scratch built the top hull and curved turret mount from plastic card and added the 2nd turret from a BA10 armoured car. Painting was done with Vallejo acrylics and weathering was a mixture of oils, enamels and pigments trying to keep a realistic look
