I recently bought a kit of a T-55 Soviet tank. The kit is made by Itialeri.

What I need to know, is if anyone who built this kit, built the Yugoslav version, since that is the version I'm building. I just need some tips or pictures for referance.

I also need some tips on painting tracks.

Thanks in advance for any help I get with this.

This is the old Esci kit reboxed by Italeri. It will help you if you look for Esci reviews. I painted my tracks a rusty color with a heavy tan drybrushing.

Here is a link to a site that has some neat photos of the T-54/55 tank: http://ipmslondon.tripod.com/t54t55special/id22.html

Here is a site that compares the four available T-55 kits (remember, the Italeri kit is the old Esci kit): http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~TANK-GUY/KIT-REVIEW06.html

Thank you.

Here's another site...
