Looking at ref material for my next big project and found this page, If you need to know everything about the T-62, T-72, T-80, BMP-2 ,BMP-3 and a few other types this page goes into great detail on how they evolved. Fantastic photo's and write ups on almost every aspect. Well worth a look and it appears more types are coming. I just had to share this link https://thesovietarmourblog.blogspot.co.uk/p/home.html Cheers Dan

Hello, here is another build from my 1/72 tank collection, was my second (new) one. Right after the Revell T-72. Done before new years eve 2013/14. This is an older kit, released under the Matchbox and Monogram label as well, its more on the crude side by todays standart, but fun to build. The parts needed some clean up, especially the snorkel and the small stuff, some sinkholes had to be filled. Made some additions to the otherwise oob build. The headlights got "guards" over, done by stretched sprue The front skirt, seen on these tanks were made by thin plastic card The turret was improved with an additional smoke grenade launcher, some "wires" seen on pics and the small handlight looking aft at the back of the turret were added. The fuel drums were altered to remove the big seam running through them. The holes at the back plate/engine deck were closed and the "log" was added using a sprue. Painted with Revell colors and weathered with acrylics and some drybrushing. the sand color was sprayed on, the green was brushed on. Maybe i am able to replace the "8,8 flak gun" with a more true to scale replica of the anti aircraft mgs seen on russian or soviet tanks. Not much time for modelling right now, but this was a beautiful day with good light conditions outside. Hope you like it Bernd

These look rather nice, the future release list looks rather good too, including cold war German tank crew as well as IDF. https://www.facebook.com/valkyrieminiature Regards Dan
