Ade SpallAmazing. Your photoetch work is so fantastic. I can't wait to see it all completed!
Rui SThere are things that I can't understand how they are possible and your work is one of them. Simply Excellent 👍
Jakub WiraszkaThanks mates 🙂 I'll do my best till the very end of this project, but there is still much to be done 🙂
Jakub WiraszkaThanks Guillermo. Frankly typical PE is only slat armor, Sosna-U gunner and Commander panoramic sights and some little things on rear part- I took this from mickrodisign sets. I had to make the rest of the brass and polystyrene sheets with couple meters of copper wire... 🙂 when I was starting I wasn't expecting so many fixes and changes to the T-90MS from Zvezda. After so many additions its not MBT rather true heavy tank ;D
Jakub WiraszkaThanks Jerry nice to hear 🙂
@ Rui - painting ongoing- first coat 🙂
Ingo FLooks awesome mate! 👍
You beat me on this one. 🙂 Have plans to scratchbuild this model in the future but will probably use the Trumpy T-90MS kit for it.
So much work put in this build, just wow. How long are you working on it?
It took me about three months to finish the scratchbuild of my T-80BVM in 2019.
Joseph RussoNice use a PE a bit to fiddly for my abilities, love the net around the turret bustle
Jakub WiraszkaThanks mates.
@Joseph Russo
It was almost impossible to get. This net, what I discovered, is only in Rosomak IFV from IBG. But luckily I received it as a gift from colleague... 🙂 I was suprised is not produced by anyone else seperatelly.
Spanjaardsimply stunning .your craftmanship is totally amazing. and the final result is a stunner.
Jakub WiraszkaThanks all of You. It was more shorter journey than I thought. Way faster than T-80BV. Maybe it was because I knew T-90MS from my previous project. Anyway I can say T-90MS from Zvezda is a good base, I like it a lot.
Album info
T-90M proving ground version. The workshop takes a while, so in short ???? what has changed compared to the Zvezda base.
Changes:

- non-slip coating on the body and turret
- complete electrical wiring on the body and turret
- correct wire light covers
- marker lights details (front / rear)
- missing bolts (charge cassette closures) added to the reactive armor of the body

- a ring around the basket of the turret has been added higher than in the T-90MC
- added buckles for containers (Microdisign from the set dedicated to MS)
- replacement tank holders (wire)
- enlarged right rear fuel tank - compatible with the T-90M version. In addition, improved location of the fuel fillers and grooves in the tanks
- side skirts bolts replaced, wire handles added, geometry of the front side skirts changed (reactive armor elements and rubber skirts)
- right rear fender made of metal + bolts
- engine compartment air filter mesh (Microdisign from the MS kit)
- details of the rear part of the body (Microdisign from the kit dedicated to MS), slat (Microdisign from the kit dedicated to T-72B3M mod. 2016) required some elements to be corrected (length, spacing of fixings and their type), but overall it was ok

- reversing camera made with all wires
