Hi all!
When I build armor I primarily modern ones so when trump release their T-90 I was of course interested and when I saw at my LHS it was impossible to resist. I have managed to complete the lower part of the tank and about to begin the upper part of the hull. I must say that the kit is very impressive, both the fit and the detailing.

I plan to replace the tracks with either the friul or the miniarms one but I cannot really decide which one. Is there anyone that would have any say as to which of the two are the best choice?

The plan is to make this a build log so I will keep the pictures coming and I hope that you will enjoy it.

Thanks Gecon! I plan to replace the tracks and all the wheels on the model and probably the barrel to. What do you mean with exhaust tip?

First of all. Tracks comes from T-72. The exhaust the same. That`s what I mean
