Hi,
just started a weekend project, a funny AER T-38 ampfibian tank. I just donīt seem to find any reference of the interior of the tank and I would like to show it top hatch open.. I just need something to detail the inside of the tower...
Please help!

The only thing I could dig up is this from Missing Links:
The best recent references in magazines Ground Power #88 [Sept.2001], which contains plans and some ten pages of photographs on both the T-37 & T-38. Another good source is Tankograd Gazette #14 which contains a very good article about the T-37 & T-38.
I've looked all over the web for anything...nothing.
Another place you could try is The Russian Battlefield

Thanks, Kenc...
I have to get my hands on those magazines...
BTW, thatīs a pretty nice kit for two euros (!), plastic is very soft but itīs ok as there is much to remove and do some scratchbuilding. I replaced the useless MG with Model Kastenīs white metal one, replaced the engine grille and opened the top of the tower and scratchbuilt the hatch door. I think Iīll attach some equipment on top of the tank to distract the eye from the low detail of the kit.
Iīm gonna display it with Finnish markings, winter camo, rough white over basic olive green...A good kit to try out some painting techniques. My first tank, by the way!
