Good day to you dear readers.. Hope you readers having a good day and all is well with you guys. This is the T-80 that I have been building so slowly for about 2 months. Finally took some times off to take photos of this. I have purposely taken off the fuel drums as I think this baby looks better without them. I also took off the cables ... well.. just because. I have no reason for taking off the tow cables LOL. For the Colours, I used Tamiya Dark Green XF-70, Vallejo Air Black and Mr. Colour Aqueous Aircraft Gray H57. For weathering, I kept the entire vehicle clean, free of chippings and collected dust. Since this is a prototype ( according to what I have read at Armorama ), I wanted to put this in a scenario where they are testing out performance with the diesel engine on a relatively new vehicle. Well, that's about as much I can sum up about the build. More informations and more photos and bigger ones (4000X3000) can be found on my blog - modeller-innovation.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/trumpeter-135-t-80bvd-freak-version-of.htmlPlease do have a look and thank you so much in advance for any feedback you guys may have. C&C are welcomed. Just be gentle... LOL. Thank you for always supporting and for the kind words and various encouragements. Until the next launch.

Very nice work! I built their T-80BV and loved it. Need to look into this "selling my kits" idea. But man, the pain of packing and shipping kills.
