Hi lads!

Here is my T-55 ready to paint. I spent nearly 6 months every day 2 hours to this Tamiya kit. Two full Aber P.E. including boxes (because I've built the Czech version), fenders, gun, etc. The 12.7DSchK came from RB, ammo box for that is from Voyager left over parts. I had to build fully scratch the engine deck because the Blast models resin quality is the worst what I've ever build from. So what you see there is fully scratch. I know this is not the best T-55, and I know many other parts could be more nice, but guys I tell you the truth, I start to sick of it after years! Oh yeah I forgat to say I started nearly 8 years ago this project. The Aber is not accurate, the Masterclub track was a piece of SH..., oh yeah, thanks to Masterclub to never answer to my complain, now I know why I will never ever again buy your products But finally I'm here, ready to paint it And this feeling is awesome!

It looks so great.I have noticed so many little details of a Czech built T-55 like the boxes on both sides of the rear.Your scratch building is just perfect.

Thanks a lot Jason!

Unfortunately it looks like I made a mistake and made a Czech version instead of a Polish! On another forum were a discussion with a Serbian guy, who said the T-55's in Serbian army which had turret number was starting 20 must be a polish made version. That's mean I have to rebuild the engine deck, or at least the doors! So before I paint it, I have to fix this problem.

Cheers
Gergo
