bk1009In case anyone's wondering since there doesn't appear to actually be an E-variant of the BMP-3 anywhere - this model appears to be of the rarer BMP-3 with a Vesna-K sight. The tell-tale is the second optic installed outboard of the standard 1K13-2 or newer Sozh sight It can be made into a standard BMP-3 using the unused parts on sprue D, or even into the newer vehicles refitted with the Sozh (single optic on the roof, IR beamer in place of the original IR spotlight) sight using aftermarket/spare parts or by scratch-building the PL-1 IR beamer.

bk1009By the way, since the manual doesn't give information about the colours of the interiour (outside of suggesting flat black for the seats) people can try something like Tankograd's BMP-3 article for reference (ie to see which parts of the turret basket are red, grey, white.. etc). Also, from the same set of reference photos, it'd appear that the unditching log's position in actual usage is different - it hangs on the port side's hull and not as depicted on top of the main hull beside the turret.

bk1009Thanks, I like how it turned out so far despite me screwing up a bit with the tracks (though thankfully, it shouldn't be something that can't be hidden with a bit of weathering. Also, I'm surprised how well the packs turned out, given that they were copied using Oyumaru (and sprue goo) straight of the sprue of a Tamiya detail set XD

bk1009Uhh,a bit of warning to kit builders - this kit's full of errors thanks to it mixing up details specific to Factory 183 and 112. For example, front and upper rear hull plates and weld joints are 183-pattern, while the flush bottom plate is 112. Same goes with the turret - the distinct turret shape with the flattened sides (and one long seam on the circumference of the whole turret) place it as a 183, whereas the seam towards the turret nose is the shape of a 112 "Composite" turret (1945 pattern, since the turret has a one-piece turret hatch and split fans).
Unfortunately, the anachronisms make the original kit (6545 WW2 Factory 183) unrealistic as well, since (again) - the hull uses a mix of 183 and 112-features AND worse - at least some of the 183 details date the production date of the kit after the end of the (European) war, as the final drive housing's of the latter (May '45 and onwards) shape, with a distinct step (as opposed to the original rounded one).
Tl;dr version: While this kit's shaping up to be a decent enough build (especially at its price point), Italeri sure dun goofed on the details, so if one wants to have an "accurate" tank, going with the Zvezda, DML or MiniArt (among others) will be needed.
