AFAIK when a lane was cleared a luminous mark was sprayed into the ditch/track to highlight it... maybe these electrical condiuts carried the cables etc.

Nice work by the way, i always knew the sloped rear part of the T-55 was flawed!!!..

I love the build. I've got some pics of the cross section T-55AM2 that I took last time I was at the Deutsches Panzer Museum. I'll see if there are any good interior ones to help you out.

Main differences aside, It would be interesting to know if Polish and Russian exemplars were made with slightly different processes. As you know also the various Russian factories even made some modifications on them

really interesting job so far...it looks convincing indeed

Sorry for the OT but...

How thick are the plastic sheets that you're using for your build?
