Hi Dmytro;

"Yes" I can't wait to get my hands on this one ! The only thing that I Don't like is the Three part Hull Tub ! Altho the Engine looks really nice, I wish they would have included the Transmission & Drive Sproket Drum assymbly.
In any case Thanks for posting the Pictures !

CHEERS; MIKE.

It looks great....I want one, but Miniart needs to start including the transmissions. The T-44 did not have it or a drivers area, with there new T-54 based products, they have included the drivers area which is great, just need to go a bit further and include the transmission area.

Minus the transmission compartment. But I'm sure it will be a beautiful kit. I'm currently finishing up there T-44 and it's been a great project.

I love that they included what looks like the complete fender machine guns also, I just wish I could find some photos or drawings of the real ones with the covers open to add any extra details in those areas.

Dmytro, great workmanship!
I'm guessing that if you've built the test kit without any hiccups, it will hit the shelves very soon?

Cheers,
Greg
