Thank you guys :)

Is a mixture of brown and green.
Over time, the color has faded.

Regards

good start, although it could use some weathering to bring it to life. You achieved a very smooth finish, did you brush paint or airbrush it?

A little bit of a mystery; even 4BOGreen is unaware of it. In 1/35, there are KV-1 kits by: Eastern Express (now Ark); Tamiya; Trumpeter; and Zvezda. Of these the most likely would be Zvezda (via Italeri?), but that's supposedly quite a recent mould, seems a little unlikely that Revell would have gotten hold of it so quickly?

Or maybe not ... found an online discussion thread where Mr Stokes says that he thinks the Revell kit is the Zvezda.

Hi all,

Thank you :)

I do not think it's authentic Revell.
I painted with a brush.

Regards
