Another Tank From the Duke

Hey all. This was one of the Trumpeter 1/72 scale T-55-type tanks I was building with all those other tanks before. I actually finished this about two weeks ago, but I forgot to post it!

 

This is the Chinese Type 59 tank from Trumpeter. Since China exported a number of these to Iraq. I decided to make mine Iraqi to increase my Iraqi army.

 

Here it is completed:

I'm happy with this. I took the decals from ACE leftovers, as well as some old ESCI decals from their T-62. This was a fun little build. It's also all I have finished for now except for my ship in the Ships Forums. Feel free to check it out as well.

 

Meanwhile, thanks for looking, comments are welcome.

Duke,

 

Very nice! I have one in 1/35 scale in progress. Always good to see how others finish their models when building the same subject. I think mine will be in Russian markings.

Thanks Lee. I was trying to find all the references I could to see where to place the markings. I finally found a good one and I'm real happy with this little beast.
