Done, I think
The T-26-4, by UM from the Ukraine. Nice little kit, well detailed and comes with the PE. Went together rather well, considering the size and no. of parts ( see the suspension).
More pic's in the Campaign Gallery, and a short build thread is here
Hope you like it, I did and I might even build more braille scale stuff..
Cheers
Henk

Looks very good. That model turned out great!
I also like the blown-up picture it the other thread; looks majestic!
Are that Woodland Scenics bushes you used on the vignette?
Perhaps a small tree will add some more depth in the scene. But that is just an idea.

Thanks Al, knowing that you look with a knowing, critiqual eye means I must have got it right this time. Don't worry, I'm still working on the Bradley..
Thanks Art
Paul, the bushes are indeed Woodland Scenics, well spotted. I have been thinking about adding a tree, but as this is really small and compact, I'm not sure. But I'll build (well, attempt to :-) ) one anyway, to see if it works. I might add it at a later stage.

Henk, Brother, I hate to say this, but, I think it's too dirty. You should get the crew to wash it every now and then. You know, for the State parades and all...
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
Gotcha!
I love it! For such a small piece, the detail you've done is fantastic!
Right on!

Turned out well Henk, nice little model.

Cheers Dave. I'm on a bit of a roll lately, having finished quite a few models in a short space of time. And it's seeing the work (and speed at which) people like yourself create that has been giving me the kick up the @** that I needed to step up a gear.
Touche Murphy, :-) I knew that one would come one day... :-) :-) I'm glad you like it, and I was impressed with the detail on this kit, as I said, this is 100 % OOB. I posed it on the base like this so that there is a good view of the back, as that's where the little PE (tow cable?) brackets are, and to show the hatches and rivets/bolts underneath the hull !!
I really recommend this kit to anyone who wants to build a nicely detailed kit, with PE, that doesn't break the bank or goes completely bonkers with silly details.
Cheers

I only work fast because I'm a sad old bu***r with nothing else to do! Slowing down a bit now though as I'm teaching my 14yr old son to play golf, which has meant re-learning myself as I haven't played for about 10 years! (My 49year old back isn't too keen on this new activity though! LOL)

Very nice little model Henk. I like the presentation too. I think UM products are well. I didn't hear any bad comment about their kits. Congrats on finishing this nice model.
