1/72 KTO Rosomak

About the model (ENG): Model by Polish firm Taloloko. Included resin and photoetch parts, metal gun barrel, and rubber tires (terrible and not similar) . In general, the model is very high quality. But I made some improvements: Completely remade the gun mask and its breech (it was greatly simplified). Replaced 2 protruding parts on the root of the gun. I Made also: new machine gun, 2 antennas, mirror film on the mirror, winch guide from behind, a cable, ladder, reflectors, and some small parts on the hull and turret. Put etched barbed wire (Balaton Models) into the front basket. Replaced the tires with more suitable ones (copy from Revell Lux or Fuchs).

Oshkosh HEMTT Armored Cab (Iraq war)

History reference The American heavy highly mobile tactical truck, or HEMTT with 8x8 wheels formula and a payload of 10 tons, has been manufactured by the Oshkosh company since 1982.

1/72 Tank Grotte (T-22) by ARMO

I'm starting to build a new model. This is a very interesting early Soviet tank. Resin model by Polish firm ARMO. Here is my video review of this model History reference TG, “Tank Grote” or T-22 are an experimental Soviet medium tank created in 1931 under the leadership of German engineer-designer Edward Grote working at that time in the USSR. The tank was distinguished by the use of a large number of original solutions and innovative developments and seriously outpaced the overall level of the world tank building of that time. Due to the high price and the general inconsistency of the Soviet industry with the requirements of the production of the tank, the TG was not accepted for service and was not mass-produced. However, the experience gained in the design of the machine, allowed the Soviet designers subsequently proceed to the design of the T-35 tank. Model Firstly I found all the available photos, drawings and 3D of this tank. It is also available in the Wor...
