discussion Dave Ward's 1/35 Trumpeter SU-152 Heavy SPH - Completed

[Dave Ward]

I'm calling this finished....................

The Trumpeter SU-152 is a very good model, the fit is superb, very little clean up, and really looks the part, when finished. The only beef, I think, could be the complete lack of interior, but that's it.
The KV series from Trumpeter are all pretty good - and better still, you can pick them up at good prices!
Nice introduction to Soviet WWII armour.

Very beautiful work! But do not think that I am carping and I have nothing to do. On KV-2 never wrote inscriptions. Excuse me. I wrote this for those who adhere to realism.

Sergei,
thanks for that :thumb2: Do you know why no inscriptions on KV-2? All other Soviet tanks seem to have had inscriptions..............

Everything is very simple. At the beginning of the war it was not common. KV-2 were at the beginning of the war but not an experienced crew quickly lost all the tanks. They were either destroyed or captured by the Germans that most often happened. You have noticed that the inscriptions are on the KV-1 and T-34. Because these tanks fought for a long time. the soldiers did not immediately begin to write on tanks at the beginning of the war. Here is a photo of the German KV-2.
