Interesting... Is that the VP turret? The commanders cupola ring is all kinds of wrong... And the hull is the Trumpeter kit? I look forward to seeing what you'll do with this.

For this T 55 I used the wheel which are in the Esci kit I've improved and that in my opinion they are better than those of the Trumpeter kit.To improve I just used a needle file, sandpaper and cutter.Here is the final result.

New advances on the T 55 mainly concerning work on additional fuel tanks placed on the fenders.I used resin copies of those produced by Verlinden Productions and realized the various connecting pipes with copper wires and iron.
