They came out looking fantastic. You did a good job.

I want tanks now... hahaha.

Very very very nice Dimitry!

same width. different lenght and heights.

i'm not sure if your backstory will say that the new Russ has better ergonomics and more user-friendly than the standard ones. i.e. crews are less suffering from the fatigues endured during the operations (of this machine)

=^.^=

I don't think the Imperium cares about crew comfort. "only in death does duty end"

yep but i've watched some docu said that for a tank crew. improved crew comfort increases tank combat efficiency. but I don't know how much?

but that was WW2 and it was a quote about T34 series. when it gets the newer version, crews became less tormented by the tank interior.

I quote this because This LR has a longer hull and higher sillhouette than usual.

For Warhammer - the big tank, means is located more shells, fuel, the reservation, the weapon. People live to fulfill only the duty and to die for the Emperor.

Dmitry.

Damn fine tank. And a good read about how you got this far. Keep up the good work. May your devices work without fault for the following cycles.

Demitry, have you ever thought about casting up some of your work? If you took the GW parts off the tank and sold kits of it you could make some great money.

I have seen Leman Russ Mk II's all over the internet and want to get my hands on one...

Again, a nicely done model! I also like the use of the Panzer turret as that is close to the Leman Russ Turret style, but did enjoy the KV-1 turret as well.

At Bootcamp I post as Gen. Makarov

Superb job, sir. You should look into a game called Flames of War. I have a thread about it here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/399013.page just check it out. It's only 15mm, but it will offer you an even greater chance to shine.

Sent to you from my brand new iMac.
Cheers- Killy

But 15mm wont allow him to do this level of hyper-detailing.

very good looking! and the second one looks also very good, nice additions to the standard look!

On the given tank won't be sponsons. The tank wide enough. If to put sponsons, he will look square.

lol...thats why your own dimetry pattern tank looks much better and realistic than a simple GW version Leman russ!!!

vik

Great work Dmitry! Have you decided if you're going to have the tank-commander on top of the tank?

Also, if you decide the tank needs to have secondary weapons, how will you add them without sponsons?

So freaking cool. A+++

Dimetry, I may have asked you this previously, but do you have any photos of your 1/35 models?

Hello.

Unfortunately, almost doesn't remain photos of my models. I can show only it:
The Soviet tank WW II - JS-1 (JS-85mm). 1944.
Scale 1:35.










One more model.
It isn't ended yet.
Soviet tank Т-34. 1943.
It is other scale - 1:48.







Dmitry.

i especially like the weathered textures on the painted one... those marks where weather or fights have marked it´s toll... and the crews tried to fix that anew with paint... very realistic! did you do there the welding stuff too?

All welded seams and fine details are made independently. The model in a box isn't ideal. It is necessary to add many details and to correct available details that she was similar to the real tank.

Dmitry.

your eye for detail is your best talent! this combined with your sense for quality and realism is the true spirit of modeling!

This thread is just plain awesome!!! keep up the great work Dimetry!!

THat is awesome
I love the seams and weathering with the texture

You have a great talent for Armor Dimetry!

Incredible work as always!

This forum is loaded with talents!

Hello.

I have decided to change this tank. Has decided to make fenders stronger. On them it is impossible to place instruments. I have altered fenders.

Also I have decided to change a back part of the tank and an exhaust system. Work isn't finished yet.








I would like to hear your opinion.

Dmitry.

Nice reinforced looking armor for the tracks! Also with that exhaust system, this should also be the "Silent Russ"

i like them...!^^

Wonderful!

Well, that tank can be silent getting to position.
