20mm Painted WW2 Soviet T-28 medium tanks.

The Soviet T-28 was among the worlds first medium tanks, the prototype was completed in 1931 and went into production in 1932, it was an infantry support tank and designed to destroy fortified positions but would see limited success on the battlefield.

It weighed 28 tonnes, a length of nearly 24 and a half feet, a crew of 6, a 76.2mm main gun and this variant had 4 7.62mm machine guns.

Have been collecting a few 20mm Soviet pieces over the last year as a side line and as the British are currently been painted I just wanted to paint something different (not that different I grant you) but will do something around 1942 in Russia with my early war Germans.

The models are from Shellhole Scenics "Friend or Foe" range and I have added some 20mm German armour to show scale.

20mm German Panzer IV and II for scale.
