Colleagues, hello.

I continue the construction of model of the JS-4 tank.

I remade wings regiments in forward part of model (I made as it is necessary on early JS-4 tanks).
I established elements of fastening of wings shelves to the tank case.

Colleagues, thanks for the interest shown to my model.

Loving all the neat little details you're putting in this!

Colleagues, thanks for the shown interest to my work!

This is shaping along quite nicely! I can't wait to see it get painted

Hello, colleagues.

I continue tank construction.

On additional fuel tanks I established fuel branch pipes and atmospheric tubes.





On a turret I established elements of fastening of a machine gun (in marching situation) and spare trunks to a machine gun.




I fixed towing cables and towing earrings on the tank case.




I established a saw.



I established a headlight and a sound signal. I made an electrical wiring.




I took the first step to painting - I grounded model.

It's a shame to have to cover up all of that fine scratch work, but I must admit it looks excellent in it's primer coat.

Well with the primer on it looks like a top class 1/35th kit ..... awesome skills throughout the whole project Dmitry!

cheers

Fantastic model mate The details are very sharp.

Dmitry,

Extraordinary! I am speechless.

Colleagues, thanks for the shown interest in my work.

I began a stage of coloring of model - I put basic color and I lightened details.

Dmitry,

Your build was simply breath taking. The amount of detail you put in to a 1/48th scale kit is amazing. Its also an inspiration to try new techniques. Thank you for sharing your build. Can't wait to see the finished build.

What a fantastic model! I have a 1/100 scale (sometimes called "15mm scale") model of this vehicle coming out soon for wargamers to use in their gaming, but this one is much more detailed and impressive.
