Hi Tovarich,here some pics of my last work.Is an early '60 prototype, based on the T 62 Tank with the T 72 type running gear and testing for the first time a gas turbine engine.Lots of scratch and resin copies.The turret cames from an old Navigator conversion,the barrel is an Armour scale one and the tracks are from Friulmodel.What do you think??
BTW a Biig thank to Alexey Khoplothov for providing me lot of pics of the Kubinka real stuff!!!
PS:check on the photos icon to see that!!
PS2: is my first time with posting pics here, if some body can help me moving those pics directly on the post would be great!

Very nice and inspirational too!

Tracks seem to be of a different type on the reference picture though...

Cheers,

Christophe

Yes Chris, infact on the pics they are T 55/62 style tracks; but the tank wear both types so i decided to put the T 72 type simply because i have them in my shelf.Happy modelling!Marco
