Managed to give the hull top a quick coat of paint (Humbrol #86)
I think the cast effect texture has come out better now painted over.
Ian.

Hi Gra Yeah going to file it flat so doesn't look like well a LED  Need to fix a few bits though LED flash has stopped working and one of the idler wheels about to fall off  Then back on with the detailing and weathering. Ian.

Added a bit more detail to the tank.
I know it was the later KV1's which had the fuel drums attached but think it looks good so made myself a fuel drum out of plastic card.
Bit more paint and engine coolant vents added.
Also added a few spare track links.
Still got bottom half of hull to paint when it arrives and weathering to do.

Hi Gra
The round container I believe is storage for cleaning rod/tool for the main gun. The Heng Long model comes with it as standard.

Not much happening of this tank recently.
I found the way I had loose tow ropes wasn't too practical, basically got caught on stuff I drove over.
Before
So shortened them
Now
Also revisited the sounds and fitted a better volume control and made the custom speaker box more airtight to further enhance the sound quality.
Ian.
