Hi guys. I just finished my Trumpeter T-90 cast turret and it is great model to build even if it isn't 100% accurate. I wanted to make earlier version so I used T-72 tracks from friul even if you can't see their details because they are all covered with snow. Another modification is use of earlier exhaust type also from T-72.
Here are some pictures and any comment is welcomed.

Hi Marko!

Looks really Great!! How did you make the Snow? And was the eagle-decal included in the kit?

Best regards,
Andreas

Andreas, snow is made of soda bicarbonate and distilled water and it is pretty easy to work with that mix. Eagle decal is included in the kit

Thanks guys

@Grzegorz

for black I used Tamiya XF-69 Nato Black

for green Valleyo model air 71.019 Cam.Dark.Green

and for mustard color I mixed Tamiya XF-4 Yellow Green & XF-3 Flat Yellow in ratio 70:30 or 80:20

I guess that colors from Ammo set 7109 of Modern Russian Colors are also good choice.

Snow is one of the most difficult things to do with an acceptable realism and you made it very well!
overall a very good work!

Marko, loved the way you did the snow; very well done.

Would provide the way you did the mix of your ingredients and how you applied it to the tank model?

And I liked the color and eagle decal on the T-90.
