Hallo This is my T-44 with interior. In many cases I can already tell you, the instruction and assembling is inferior. Interior & inferior. This kit, in my case I missed the sprue By. So I had to scratch some parts as the front seat and rear details for the compressor decking. The kit has typical Minart problems. Holes too shallow and pin diameter too small. So, therefore some work has to be done. Much guessing for the drive unit and rear compartment. You can not follow the instruction straight on, because the assembly is impossible. The water pump of the engine and some piping fixed on the gear-box are such thing. The pins for the bracket for the air intake of the engine can be fixed only with removed pins at the sidewall. Many other things are there, where thinking forward and rethinking his instruction is necessary for not getting caught in a trap. Without exercise on T-34 and Su-122 there is no way! Happy modelling

Hallo This is my Su-122 from MiniArt with interior in 1/35. It was actually a nice work. The pro and cons are exact written in the WIP section. I omitted the photo-etched parts for fasteners. It is such an idiotic process; I have until now no way to make it properly. I used instead strips of Tamiya self-adhesive masking tape. Easier and looks not so bad to my opinion. I used a template for the wheels. And used Friul track chains. Have a look and I hope you enjoy it.

Hallo This is my first vehicle with a gun but not a tank. Since I have experience now with MiniArt interior kits and the T-34, I think to have a good starting position. Here I will also use the older track chain from Friul, which is much better as the kit’s track. I started with the floor and all the tiny equipment. In general, the painting pattern is very different to the T-34. I have no idea if the instruction is correct. I can assume that it is so, since the colors mentioned here make sense. Even if they use in Su-122 production another primer as in T-34 production. In one way I am sure, it will look different! Well, the construction goes straight ahead. Just bearing in mind to deepen holes! Next day some oil, brush painting, dry brushing and some details more to spray. Happy modelling

Hallo This is my first MiniArt T-34 kit with interior. In comparison to the AFV Club, where I did two T-34 with interior, this kit is much more detailed. Actually, it is a joy to get this kit done. Sometimes the instruction gave me a search mystery, since some parts are shown in projection, where you see quite nothing, on the other side the comments are not conform to the flow of reading. The tracks are from Friul. I used the old track version, because I had them in storage. On the other hand, I thought it may also have been used in transition time or no new track in storage. But, the length of the track: The kit announced 72 links, actually I had to use 76 links. There may be a pitch mistake! My WIP: Happy modelling
