I started this project last week for the World of Tanks Model building contest. Using the Zvezda T-26 M1933 as the base and ОРУЖЕЙНИК/Gunslinger AT-1 conversion. Really nice converison, though I got shorted a engine deck intake and they don't provide the DT Machine gun mount!

Love it! Where did you buy it?? Too bad it didn't include the MG and mount.... Looks clean and crisp!

This is a cool little build. And it's a conversion that I didn't even know existed.

Completed shots...this is about the fastest I've build a model in ages! Feels nice to get something completed since March of last year.

Oh, that's just so awesome! Where would I get me one to build?

The weathering looks perfect and almost could use some writing on the side of the superstructure too! But that's just my opinion.

I really like SP guns and this little one is just too cool! Thanks for sharing!

A very handsome piece of work, indeed. After about 30 years away from military modeling, I must say that the thing I find most delightful are all the high-quality models and conversion kits that let today's hobbyists create highly detailed models of early and rare armor, and even non-existant armor (i.e., "paper panzers" and other "what-if" designs). I hope one day there may be a museum to house many of the best of these outstanding historical simulations, for all to come, see, and enjoy.
