They look good, those Esci (boxed by AMT/Ertl in the states when I first saw them) are what got me back into building small scale armor in the 1980s.
I would straighten out the antennas unless you plan on tying them down; they look too unrealistic warped like that.
Very nice work on those little kits !
I have fond memories of late 1970s era small scale ESCI armor kits due to the number of parts and fine detail on even small items.
Thanks for posting the photos.
Nice trio, always neat to see the modern/Cold War stuff get its due!
