Diorama features the new Trumpeter KV I kit with DML Soviet tank riders.  The kit was built from the box and went together great!  It was painted with Tamiya flat black as an undercoat and highlighted with Testor's acrylic Russian green.  This was lightened with dark yellow and the center of each panel was shot.  Weathering was done with oil washes and filters as well as spot blending.  Dust and dirt are pigments and John Steinman's mud mixture. 

The crew were painted with oils for the flesh and acrylics for the uniforms.
