Any kits / conversion available for the T-34 Flak ?

I guess a 88 Flak on a JS chassis would be a little crazy....

Hi John,

Maquette makes a Flak T34. It is actually a T34 captured by the Germans with a quad Flak 38 mount.

I saw some photos of it, but I never saw a kit of it.
But since almost every German project from 1933 to 1945 is available in 1/35...

Maquette kit ? is it any good ? plastic or resin ?

Thanks,
irish

I own the kit, but have not built it.

In general, I have heard that Maquette kits can be difficult to construct with poor fit problems.

There is probably a review on it or other Maquette kits somewhere on the internet.

I have the kit, but I'm going to mate the turret with an old Tamiya T-34/76 chassis. The Maquette casting is .

It is surprising that DML hasn't done this one yet.

I was thinking of getting a cheap T-34 like Tamyia's and then put a 2 cm Flakvierling 38, or maybe wreck a Wirbelwind. But from the photos the turret looks different, with a strange shape, how is the one on the kit ?
