Looks really good. I like the dusty but subtle weathering.

Without a doubt, one of the best T-55's I've ever seen! Add a complementary background and it would be hard to say it wasn't real.

Dmitry, I can only agree with everyone else who has commented and emphasize how well this turned out, the excellent aftermarket and scratchbuiding AND the very tasteful and well-done painting and weathering. Marvelous.

Now I REALLY can't wait to see your T-62 in the other thread finished!

Jerry
