Great model, I especially love all that aftermarket stuff on it. Color will be russian green or some cammo scheme?

Where is a side armor plate which must be in front of second torsion bar on each side?

Impressive. The resin is Miniarm's T-55AM I assume?

Можно и по-русски. Пластины упустил из виду. На защиту днища не обращал пристального внимания. Её почти не видно, а место пластин, будет скрыто катками и гусеничной лентой. В планах есть ещё и гдр-овский АМ2, там эти пластины обязательно изображу, если они действительно имеют место быть. Ибо на фотографиях и чертежах их не видно

Great build indeed. The conversion is really nice with all the details you added.
Can't wait to see it with some paint on.

Truly excellent work on the build Vyacheslav- there's detail everywhere you look on it. I'm looking forward to seeing it all painted up.

Хозяин-барин. Но на всех М-ках и АМ-ках танкового батальона эти бронировки были. Такую не сложную деталь ещё не поздно добавить. На ГДР-овском тоже. На фото в блоге Вильневчица как раз ГДР-овская машина чешского производства из немецкого учебного танкового центра.

Thank you Dave. Marking will be 111 separate tank battalion of the Red Kirkenes 61 separate marine brigade of the Northern Fleet.
T-55M/AM were in service in several countries. In Czechoslovakia produced its own version-Kladivo. In Poland-Merida. They have a number of differences between them.

Here are photos T-55M/AM
