T-54B, Syria: fancy fence armor

BTR-70, Donbass

It took me about 2 months to finish the model. The Trumpeter kit is very nice and the parts fit decently. I used aftermarket barrels and antennae base, added wires and weld seams. Window bars (fences) and light guards were soldered from wire and copper foil. This type of window frame bars was very popular in ex-USSR in 1990s, so they look very cool and special for being attached to an AFV.
The stowage was taken from Minart, DAN models, Realmodel.
I was inspired by photos of 2 BTR-80s belonging to both sides of the conflict in the Donbass region hence I made kinda generic BTR. Yes, mine is BTR-70, but never mind :) The photos were taken from lostarmour.info.

T-30 Light tank

This is my build of Hobbyboss Soviet T-30 light tank. Very nice kit that fits well. However there are a number of small issues that were addressed: weld seams, rivets and bolt heads quality and placing, armament, redundant details left form T-40 etc. Rather small tank that looks more like 1/48 than 1/35 )

Back in Control: Re-Captured KV-1

Merkava siman 3 Dalet

He's my really modrn build - the Israeli Merkava 3 Dalet tank! The subject looks cool and I was very happy to buy a plastic 1/35 copy this sumer. Not resin ha-ha )) As I started the build I managed to write a review for M-Hobby magazine (to be followed by a build feature).
Now, that took me several months to finish the Merk, now here are the pics:
