I Designed & Built My Own 3D Printed T-34 Model 1940 Tank | Full 1/72 Scale Model Tank Build

Welcome to the complete build of my 1/72 scale T-34 Model 1940, the first medium tank I have designed and 3d printed. This video combines all three parts of my build series into one complete project, covering assembly, painting, weathering, and final review of this prototype 3D-printed kit. As well as being a modelling project, this build has been a chance to test my own design work and experiment with new armour modelling techniques including pigments, mud effects, chipping, and weathering. This video covers: 🔹 Assembling and painting the interior 🔹 Exterior assembly and finishing 🔹 Creating cast armour texture 🔹 Airbrushing Soviet 4BO green camouflage 🔹 Chipping and paint wear 🔹 Pigments, dust, and dried mud effects 🔹 Oil paint weathering 🔹 Final reveal and post-build review The T-34 would become one of the most influential tanks of World War II, but this model represents the earlier 1940 production variant, showcasing some of the features seen before later wartime simplifications and modifications. Throughout the project I'll share not only the techniques that worked, but also the mistakes and lessons learned while developing and building a prototype kit... 🖨️ STL files available through my Cults store: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/... ⬇️ Support the Channel ⬇️ 🛩️ Patreon:   / luca_sprues   🛒 eBay Shop: https://www.ebay.com.au/usr/luca_sprues 🖨️ Cults 3D Store: https://cults3d.com/en/users/lucajjon... 💙 Huge thanks to all current Patreons for your incredible support — including Archie Palmer, IMO, J and K Jones, Matt Austin, Patrik Hammar, Joan Moss, Paulo (Modeling the comeback), and Supply Sergeant Karl! 👉 What Soviet vehicle should I design next? 👉 Have you ever built a fully 3D printed model?
