One I build a kit it gets placed on a shelf where only I will see it most likely.  If a person that knows what a T28 is can't look at the DML kit and instantly see it for what it is then so be it. But I doubt anyone would make that kind of statement. Kinda sorta maybe looks like it is a bit of an exaggeration, the kit isn't that bad.

Actually the DML lit IS that bad. All of the angles and dimensions are off. The tracks are wrong. The upper and lower hulls are thrift wrong width and length. The gun mantlet is shaped wrong. The wrong upper hull dimensions make the layout of the hatch, cupola and engine deck wrong. It only looks like a T28 if you haven't spent much time looking at a T28. Buy the accurate armor kit. It is ok for you to think it is good enough for your shelf, but that doesn't make it an accurate kit.

the DML kit is affordable, but all of the dimensions and shapes are off.  But i guess it kinda sorta maybe looks like a T28 if you're part of that crowd.

Lived at Ft Knox when I was a kid and they had a T28 at the armor museum there. Was always my favorite armored vehicle growing up. I was really happy to see someone come out with an affordable  kit in plastic. Your stuff looks great.

Thanks for your comments. I'll take the LOWE side because it had movable turret and longer gun. ;-)

Would have been a fun confrontation for sure
