That looks awesome.  Looks like a T-72 hull with a new turret.

 

Yeah, from what I've read the Chinese liked the Soviet/Russian designs except for the turret. So they started building tanks with the hull of the T-72 but designed a new more roomy turret for their newer stuff.

Hey Kerrin, hate to say this but he showed up about three years ago, posted about a half-dozen models and then vanished. I haven't seen him around here since then. 

You might try sending him a message, no idea if he'll see it or not. 

 

 

Yeah, I completely missed the part about this being a 3-year old thread....

Good day, please get in touch as I would love to showcase a photograph of this model in an upcoming book. You can contact me at kerrincocks at gmail dot com to discuss further. I am a commissioning editor for Pen & Sword Books in the UK. Many thanks.

Nice work there on the camo.

Steve: They're not bad kits, a little simple but build up nicely.

Taeho Jo,

That's a good looking build. I must admit, I don't know anything about Chinese armor. I'll have to think about adding that to my wish list.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.
