1:72 TKS Tankette, Poland 1934

Album info
The smallest vehicle i've ever build so far!
I decided to use a pre-war camouflage for my object.
It was called "Japanese camouflage pattern" and was used until 1936.
The colors used were olive green, light gray and sand brown, until this was replaced by the green, brown and sand color scheme.
This kit (Polish TKS Tankette, First to Fight, PL1939-015) is of very good quality with fine and crisp details.
A few rivets are missing but this is acceptable for this size and for a price of less than 10 euros.
Smaller details like the headlight, taillight and tool attachment are missing too, but these are quickly added.
An additional upgrade is the Hotchkiss MG from Master (GM-72-009).
The biggest problem is that the material is a bit too soft.
That makes processing a bit more difficult.
Tanker comes from Scibor Monstrous Miniatures (72HM0003) and illustrates perfectly the small outbursts of the TKS.
Pedestal is completely built on my own.
