Here is another one of the few donated German T-72s in the New Brunswick Military History Museum. This example seems to be in a much better shape.

Joy to follow 👍

Not to be suggestive, but ..... https://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/lendlease/a-20/a-20.htm

I found these two pictures from the times when this beast was in a relatively good shape.

" I don't think you can climb on this tank", eyes of an old lady with bleached blue hair pierced the back of my head. She was wrong, I was already on top of it, proving the contrary. I also didn't feel like I have to explain myself to a random ball of righteousness who obviously didn't understand the fact that I was on the mission. A mission, to provide some gold to all of the Soviet armour enthusiasts, eagerly waiting to modify tiny bits of plastic to mirror the real deal. So I smiled in the general direction of her granddaughter and refocused my attention to the ugly padlock on the gunner's hatch. no, I didn't bring my tools ..... East German T-72M1 has less sophisticated fire control systems and thinner armour than its Soviet equivalent, the T-72A. It was intended as a cheap solution to equip the bulk of the commie allies. This particular example was manufactured under licence, either in Poland or CSSR. And now , for the pictures.

They were sure looking for you , Grand Slam as a garden gnome for the win, 😇

Ok Doc., now you’re just showing off 😆. Stunning finish.

More paint

Smooth as silk !

I just love the oil canning, looks tastefully restrained and appropriate. Bolsheviks use to modified the heck out of them, I wonder if HKM is planning any sub-version down the line?

Those T-34 series are actually a very nice kits, full interior and such. So much better then T-72 for example. Also Master makes a barrel fr it and Aber some photo etch , good choice Paul.

One of them is 😆

Got some barrels from Master and such …

Cowls seem to be always a problem, not many manufactures can get them right, especially from China.

Brilliant.

Amazing, thank you for sharing Gary.

I would cut out the decal film from these cover. Those rivets shouldn't be there.
