Robototehnik 1:50 Medium B

My announcement of this model and where to find it produced a zero response so I thought I'd build it.

The file has 3 versions available - 2 x Red Army and a British Army version. The British Army one is green which is just not right - post-WW1 British tanks were mostly some flavour of brown until green was standardised in the mid-1920s.

I picked the Green Red Army one. There were no particular issues putting it together except the central box needed reinforcement. I think I would reinforce the fighting compartment as well although I didn't do this.

The model is not as detailed as Wayne McCullough's model but is still a reasonable model of the Medium B.

Thank you.

There was a semaphore mast modelled but I left it off. It only appears in a few images of the tank and looked too fiddly to get a good result. I also wanted to get back to the Medium Mark Is - I'd like to get these finished before I get locked up.

Wayne's 1:48 Medium B images are at:

Sergey's photorealistic textures are beautiful, and Wayne's models have that extra level of detail that makes them really stand out. Both models are works of art. Nicely done, sir.
