Takom Type 59 build

[Dan]

Not a bad kit. Not so crazy busy like miniart but not as good as RFM.

[Dan]

I’m lucky that I have a miniart T55 kit that a buddy bailed on, to use as a part doner if I wish.

Wheels are from Miniart.

Interesting camo. My favorite part of your build is the torn canvas cover of the gun mantlet.

Simple but effective

I’m hoping to add these figures to the kit. I was looking for mideastern men in baseball caps and not wearing military clothes but in a tank. This seemed all that I could find. It will get the job done.

Roadwheel attachment points are covered in putty.
