Fantastic, that looks right. It is very hard to not like T-34s.

Thanks Roy, but is there a photo or drawing out there?
Just a few pics,with short descriptions- all my creative energy is going toward the photo etch! Just a few more sections to do and then focus on the interior, then paint interior, button up, then paint and age. Then figs and setting.
These are the Aber boxes that will add some finesse to the fender stowage.
the big one -in this picture you can see I made a mistake with the mounting brackets they need to have some extensions added -not flush with the ground like here. I soldered this to the fender before noticing this morning. My first task of the day was to remelt the mounts off the fender and reconfigure- and that went really well though!
the kit ice cleat straps
some stretched sprue which after softening with some Testors liquid cement will be minced with a scalpel to simulate small welds that would have held the side fenders onto the hull.
The box, (with the wrong mounts) soldered to the fender.

I look through my stuff and see if I can find a good clear pic of the ice cleat stowed.
