Miniart T-70

Post by ww2hispanomodels »

With the school finished I have more time to model. My following project is the T-70 from Miniart. As you can see, the box is not really well, but it was a bargain, only 21 euros :D

As you can see, I'm only in the first part of the model, the wheels are in the right place. That's all for the moment:

Finally, here a photo with my other project which I'm finishing a katyusha rocket launcher. Hope you like it.

With this T-70 I will probably put it in a diorama with some soviet soldiers. Comments and suggestions are well recived :thumb2:

I never made a MiniArt tank model in the past but i think they make decent kits, migt try the valentine at some point.
The T-70 you are building looks cool already, the shape of the hull is pretty funny without the fenders, just a box with wheels. The Russians sure know how to design something as funcional as possible.

That's true, and I will put the fenders at the 7th part ( the last one), so we will see more photos about the "box tank" :lol:

I've built one or two Mini-arts HamilkarBarkas, including a valentine. I've built and AFV valentine and found it to be superior.
I just got this T-70 a couple of months ago. Paid too much for it too.
I'm curious as to how well it goes together.
If you are looking for some diorama ideas, check out Operation Barbarossa pictures, First Siege of Leningrad maybe.
Just some thoughts.
Good luck.

New photos, and the model is 90% build I only have to assembly all the parts to make the tracks.

As you can see, I added this string made with copper:

To do this, I only used some old headphones that everyone has at home and some parts that I had from an old SU-85 of tamiya:

in the next photos probably it will be with the first paint. Hope you enjoy it!
