Hi,

MK models (sometime referred to as MMK as well) makes a few versions. Check the online shop of Panzershop for some pictures They are full resin and not easy to make though.....

The best info is on MMK's website - instruction sheets and pictures. You can buy direct as well.

www.mmk.cz

And the company is "MMK" not "MK".

Hi,
these are not an easy build. We had a WIP here in 2009. See here.

However, this was the 815 KOLOS, but I guess the other variants build up same. Be prepared what you get. Unfortunately some pictures are gone, but most remained. I also have this kit in my stash, but did not have the time to build it.

Tatra trucks are licence-built in India by BEML :

The trailer pictured above is bigger than the P32. Looks like a gooseneck semi used with a dolly.

I guess this is all their kits which are difficult to built.

I have made their LMV. A lot of patience is needed to make it.

Hi;
MIKE, JON, FRENCHY, MAT, ANDREAS, ALEX; --"Thanks Guys", you have Helped Me Alot !!!!!!!

The Middle photo, that frenchy posted along with the other two is what I had planed on my build; I think that my major task is trying too scratch build the Arjun, and I have already started on the turret. Its very simular to the Leopard 2 altho just A Lil-bit wider and has more of A under-cut towards the rear. I have made Blue prints of the lower and upper hull, and with the help of A lot of plastic struct it should not be to diffacult !!
Now I have to Admit, the photo, with the BMP-1 on the P-32 is Very Tempting.
CHEERS; MIKE.
