Beautiful job! I really like the weathering and the shading of the panels. Looks really nice.

How were the kits to work with?

cheers

Love the T90.

What did you use to build it ? What were your references ?

Very nice work. I hope my build turns out as nice.

One point - if you used teh Kirin kit and you did not change anything, and there were no in-progress pictures I could find, then the tank is actually a T-72BM, a "pre-cursor" to the T-90 but with enough differences to be noticed.

But again, a fabulous build.

Thanks a lot. I don't know exactly, but i bough the T-90 MBT of Kirin. Is that right?

Put Tax and a mot on that Maz 537 and you would be KING OF THE ROAD, no problems parking. Just park on top of a car /car park space you wanted. LOOKS REALLY GREAT!

No problems, you got it right. The Kirin kit is incorrectly labelled, although at the time they DID think they labelled it correctly. The basic difference is that the T-72BM had the K-5 ERA and new Glacis plate and the T-90 basically added the shtora emitters.

There are other issues with the Kirin kit, with it having been based on early 1990's information. It was a cool kit at the time, but is now very inaccurate. I built this kit as well, I thought it was the best thing around at the time. Also, you did a VERY good job with it, better than my build.

Just think, now that you know the T-72BM is not ht ebest, you can build ANOTHER tank for its cargo! Lucky you!

Dear Jacques,
Thanks for your information, cause i don't know anything about tank, the T-90 is the first modern tank that i build
I think i should find a T-72 for its cargo.
