T-36/76 Battalion in HO Scale

For about the last six years I have been pushing hard to upgrade the condition of my WWII Soviet Union collection in HO scale.

While I have painted my Soviets in various colors of olive drab this is the one I have been using recently.  Army Green by Rust-Oleum.

It seems a very "olive" olive drab color to me.

In real life military vehicle paints vary for many reasons.  Different batches, different colors, weathering and indifferent application.

These Roco T34/76 tanks are in near mint condition.

Three tanks in a platoon, ten in a company, and thirty in a battalion.

Here is the battalion in glorious Panzervision.

I resin cast both fuel drums and hatches to make sure everyone of them had the right bits.

Many of these are at least 30 to 40 years old.

I think my WWII Soviet collection is likely in the best overall condition of all my collections.
