Thank you guys!
@lukasz: you can find so many of the t-54/-5 in all scales but only a few with polish markings, that's why i decided to do one- and i like the emblem😄

Very convincing build for this scale. Looks like some photo etch was part of the box. Nicely painted. I deserves i little vignette.

Very impactive result overall and the particularly lovely shades on canvas. Great work! Fooled my eyes too lol 😄
Regarding the kit, I thought it was mushy with nasty tracks and went for the Revell T-55 with KMT5. Terribly wrong it seems...

Spanjaard and max thank you for your kind words!
Of course, the parts with the singe track elements was a bit tricky, but the kit contains a assembly help, that makes it better to handle. However, i can only recommend this kit!
Till now i have no reference about the revell kit, so....

Thumbs up for that base, too. I think it fits really well with the tank. 👍 👍

Quality work that easily passes as 1:35 - I had to check (twice!) that it was listed as 1:72. 👍

Awesome detail ,well done in my opinion ..in a scale I cannot work with. The T54/55 has so many variants ,and countries utilizing . It seems to provide endless modeling opportunities

Your word honor me😄
@mona:you're right, t-54/55 serve so many possibilities, they was used in so many countries for so long time- a gift for all tank modellers!

Album info
T-54B
In Polish service, circa 1960.
I admit that this decal variant actually belongs on a T-55.
But this T-54 is one of my earlier works when I came back to the hobby and didn't take this fact so seriously at the time.
!Please forgive me for this! 😉
I gave this model a little makeover to make it a bit more in line with the rest of my collection.
This Ammo kit (A.MIG-8502) is directly built out of box, apart from the gun barrel, which I replaced with one from Aber (72L-45).
I have absolutely nothing to complain about with the quality of this kit and it does well without a lot of extra accessories.
