Hallo Gents,
My brother, Anthony in Ireland is currently at work on this, it is a 38(t) built by the Czechs for the Germans..... it has a 37mm gun and was used as a basis for the Marder tank destroyer and the Hetzer, ![]() ![]() Its in 1/35th scale. Any comments would be welcome if you spot any mistakes, so they can be corrected. Kevin in Deva. ![]() ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by New Connaught Ranger on November 23, 2007 10:17 pm |

If he considers making it in the Romanian army service, here are some pictures that should help for the painting scheme (source: "Trupele blindate din Armata Romana 1919-1947")

Hi Dragos,
Question1: was the number yellow painted or red painted? Question 2: was the color scheme gray or green ? If usually gray, were there any green T-38? I've painted mine in green ![]() Question 3: did these T-38 had the usual colored Michael cross on the rear side on the engine ? Question4: do you have other drawings of Romanian tanks : T-3, T-4, R-2, Stugs ? Question 5: Where could I find the book? Thanks This post has been edited by johnny_bi on November 24, 2007 01:42 am |

Regarding Q1, it is indeed a contradiction in this book. Must ask the authors. Q2: I don't know of any green/olive paint for the T-38 tanks, but given the circumnstances these tanks were delivered, I think they retained the Panzer grey overall coat. Q3: I don't know, but again, I think it may have been some field improvisation if any. Q4: What do you mean by drawings? I don't have neither blueprints nor artwork except what can be found on the Internet or the Modelism magazine. Q5: You can try at the Military Museum, or you can get one directly from me as I have several (PM) |

Hallo dragos
![]() many thanks for your suggestions, my brother is an avid tank modeler, but, I do not think he has any Romanian "style" (e.g. any models in Romanian Service) in his collection and this would be a good model to paint in the Romanian style!! Kevin in Deva. ![]() |

Same thing for the RED cross inside the yellow Michael cross. |
