I suspect the donor kit is from Tamiya, right? How do you like CMK sets? BTW, are there any reviews of those available?

Yup I will work it with the Tamyia Kit.
Also ordered a Trumpeter Finnish T-55 with Mine Roller device, but i don't know when it will be here.
On PMMS there is a review for one of the sets, i will post pics of the sets and the kit itself ok ?

The Engine set as 2 bags of resin and a small set of P/E.
The Interior Set as 4 bags of resin, 1 sheet of P/E and a sheet with pre-painted dials.
All this mixed with a Big Ed set...
Still waiting for 2 Aber sets and a Mine rolling device....I will never end this T-55...

How are you thinking of painting it? Any special scheme on your mind?

Not yet, I know I will put it on the MAZ transporter.
Also wanted to find a good metal MGun.
Still don't know what scheme. Do you know any good ones ?
