Impressive work!
Which kit did you start with and what did you add?
Aftermarket parts and scratch built parts?

That's a beautiful Hungarian T-55, well done! Love the subtle weathering! What color did you use?

That's a remarkable build. I recently acquired the same kit, but am thinking of going with a civilian conversion. Is the engine deck correct oob for a Hungarian tank?

Hungary was armed with T-55 manufactured by Czechoslovakia. The design of the Czechoslovak T-55 differs from the Soviet T-55. This model is redone for the production of Czechoslovakia.
