Moved from non-Soviet forum...
I just picked up a Miniart T-80 (yay 50% sale!) and now I've been looking for some photoetch. I have not found any, but both Aber and Eduard make sets for the T-70. Except for the turret the T-70 and T-80 look like the same hulls. Anyone think most of the T-70 photoetch bits, mainly the fenders, would fit the T-80?
Thanks

Hi
I think they're the same, but I tried etched fenders from a T70 on a SU76 and it turns out that the hull for these was stretched... think the stretched version is a T70M?
I'm sure there are people here who know better than me but I'd say go for it yes. I managed to modify them for the SU76 without too much effort.
