After watching this Youtube video that Arlequín posted a link to, decided to have a go at a T-55.

That's some fabolous terrain you got there :-*

Now the 20mm urge is even greater! Thank god that the kits aren't a quid each, or I'd overspend my budget a lot...

Very nice - would be interested in seeing it on a light background.

Excellent, really love the painting.
Really a sweet looking tank.

Nice work and the scraps of camo netting look the part too.  :)

Cheers chaps, I seem to have caught the 20mm bug & I'm really enjoying rusty tanks. This and a couple of T-34/85 that I've recently finished will most likely be terrain pieces. I hope to do a few Rhodesian army looking vehicles to go with all the troops I've been collecting:

Sexy (non-wargamers will never understand the man-toy love we display).

It's a pity that the other thread has no links :(

Mmm . . . not sure why that account is maxed out, I've not posted anything from there for a while. It should re-boot itself on the 18th, apparently.
