Hi,

Very nice kit from Polish producer - Mirage Hobby. I built model out of the box. Tank from Mirage is well detailed set, there are many elements and details like in 1/35 kits. Here you can find the review:

I added only several handles and the plastic barrel was drilled. This time the base or diorama will not be prepare. Surely, I will build the next one in the future.

Nice job on such a tiny tank. It looks like Mirage used the same drawings for both 72nd and 35th models... at least they both seem to be plagued with the errors (missing turret rivets and misformed rear bumper to name a couple).

Yes, Mirage does mistakes like other producers, but the subject area isn't such common like next panzer's, shermans etc.

I will agree with you, Mirage does offer some stuff very few others do. While it would have been nice if they had paid a little more attention to the details, I find their kits a chance to improve my modeling skills trying to accurize them.
