There isnt a particular place for this guy here, so since it is T34 based, here it is. Maquette kit of the Egyptian T-122 SPG. Talk about huge and heavy! Solid resin turret, metal muzzle break and other goodies here and there. I added the AAMG from the spares box. I have a Syrian variant on the list of "to do's". That will show up here as well when complete. Let me know what you all think. Thanks. "Q"

It may look strange, but what is the purpose of such a big turret? did that gun need a crew of five? :-)

The reasoning behind the large turret was it was a rather large artilery piece and they needed the room to function. "Q"
