1⁄35T-90s Conversion
This is the Tamiya’s 1/35 T-721M converted to a T-90S using the Terre Model conversion kit and Friulmodel T-72 tracks. The actual upgrade for the tank gave it more defensive measures against anti armor weapons, Reactive armor, infrared jammers, and a laser warning system. The model was painted with Humbrol and Model Master Paints and weathered with Mig production pastels.
