Every time I look at it I think that it needs something - I just can't think what. Maybe Tankriders? Or a couple of infantry slogging through the mud alongside?

Finished - Zvezda T34/76
Here is the finished T-34/76 on a very muddy diorama base. Never done this before so all comments/suggestions are welcome.

Very nice! The mud came out great!
That's pretty gloopy mud. Maybe it could use a bit of mud on the inside of the tracks and on the road wheels? Figures could be a good addition as well.
How did you find the VMS mud to work with?

And maybe something on the ground like grass or a battlefield objects......I'v got the same problem with my first base ever. I was thinking of adding some pigment to the mud too maybe the high points to show some mud drying a little. I don't know really just trying new stuff.
I might add some more texture additive to a smaller batch to achieve the same thing. I will definitely add a couple of tufts of green grass to the mix and maybe showing the tank having run over one. I dunno
it's all experimental for me.
