Hi guys, this is my new job:


The kit is the Tamiya T-72M with Miniarm turret, set PE Voyager, wheels of Panzer Art and Friulmodel track.
I hope you like it.

looking good so far man. Love that you put that extra wire armor that the Syrian army has been putting on their tanks and bmp's to help with rpg and atgm hits. Excited to see how this turns out.

Thanks so much Luis.
As soon as I saw a picture of a Syrian T-72 with the side shields "homemade" turret, I decided to put myself to the test and try to build one!

Great job (as Usual) Fabrizio! Your builds are always so clean... Cant wait to see it all painted up. Are you using a particular photo for reference? FSA or Syrian Army?

Chris

That Stug on your blog is incredible as well

It looks like patio tiles are in "cages" on the sides. ??? Great inspiration...

You should get rid of the MG.... They didn't use them; too easy to get shot. Save it for your next T-72

Beautiful model, Fabrizio. I really like the look of the advanced composite armor of the side skirts.
