Trumpeter's T-80BV.
(07145)
Actually another joint venture project with my Chinese friend, but this time I was maybe done too quickly.... ?
However...
Concerning Trumpeter's 1/72nd scale models, i'm always a bit skeptical about their quality as far as details are concerned.
They are not bad, clean casting and good fit and so on, also here everything is available, but I am bothered that always somewhere in the finish is saved on the details.
For my taste, small but essential details are often missing.
In order to satisfy myself a little better, I made a few minor changes and added small details that I took mostly out of the leftover box.
In addition I used a gun barrel from OKB Grigorov (S72065) and the commander ́s shield from Armory (AR PE7252)
The anti-tank barriers and letters were made by a friend of mine with the 3D printer.
But despite everything, they always offer sufficient quality for "quick fun" and little money - that fits.
