Hi Sven

I looked for other pics but i didn't find it
If you look at my pics, you can notice that is not a a common T54

Track links and gun are different from a russian t54. Furthermore it has fog devices mounted on the turret that t 54 doesn't have

I'll be very interested on your reserarch

Sorry Walter for the off topic

No problem with off-topic ... it´s also interesting for me. I´m sure in russo-sovjet forum we will get some more information on this T54.

@Sven
Yes, I will visit GO MODELLING in Vienna in March. Maybe I see you there?

Cheers

Actually we have find out that's not a T54 Most likely is a Type 59 II



Sven has posted a tread. We hope to find some other pics of the Paki UN tank in former Yugoslavia
It could be very interesting to reproduce it


Considering all those differences from the original model (Track link, Fog devices...) we need absolutely some other references

Cheers

Today also the tank commander entered service.
The figure are made from parts of an old Academy figure and the head is from the russian company "TANK". The camo scheme is from the unosom pics of the indian soldiers cleaning the tank - maybe this is wrong for an indian tanker. Painted with acrylics from Andrea and Vallejo.

Thats a nice figure Walter- a very colorful camo scheme but actually very accurate- I assume this is the scheme you are referring to?



Cheers

Thanks for your picture - I tried to do this camo scheme, it seems to be a little brighter in colour http://www.gettyimages.at/detail/742292/Getty-Images-News
