Ahh, nice...
another vehicle, which I also built.

I had Dragonīs T-80 w_ERA version, which is identical with this kit.
My one was painted in brick-red, grey and green.
But the result was not very "showable".

I wait for the next steps of your build.

greetings...

Hi Gulumik,

Looking forward to seeing this buid!

I built the non-ERA version about 18 months ago. It is a so-so build and needs some extra detailing to avoid it looking a bit toylike. The main gun (as I discovered AFTER I built the model) is grossly oversize and is more in scale to something like a 152mm gun; so a suitable aftermarket replacement barrel may be a good idea?

BTW - If you can get the top run of tracks to fit and then secure the upper hull.......you are a better man than I! I had to leave the top run of tracks off mine when I built it as the tracks snagged the upper hull. No big probs as they cannot be seen after the side skirts are fitted anyway.

Happy modelling!
Gary

Czesc!! Firstly, congratulations for your model, it looks awsome.

I will also buy the same kit of T-80, from Zvezda, but I have no idea what colours to use. Should I trust their indications?

Which colours did you use?
