Do you think there will be an after market for this primitive kit?

Very nice, thanks for showing us! This most certainly ends the days of Tamiyas good old T-55A being the king of the hill (which it had been for quite some time as we all know)

And it will give some aftermarket producers some frostbites as well as I would guess...

I think Dmytro has been skipping painting the interiors for time, but some of the earlier T-54 builds on MiniArt's site have painted interiors. Check under the "build up" section.

Nice work Dmytro, as usual! Looking forward to seeing your build of the model 1981 when it becomes available.
