Syrian T62 by Khurasan






 Here are some pictures of Khurasan T62.   These are very nice models.  But you will need to do a few things first.  

Clean out the flash in between the road wheels and tracks.  On the turret there are some small steps that need to be removed from the 3d print process.  This can be done using sand paper. It only takes a few minutes.

The T62 where issued to the Syrians shortly before the start of the Yom Kippur war.  I planning not over do the weather. As these where destroy rather quickly in the opening hours of the war. The Soviets rushed fresh T62's to the Syrians during the conflict.  A surprising number are just green all over.   This T62 is a work in progress.  Should have a few completed by this coming weekend.

Now for pictures:









 One thing I wish I added where the sands bags over the external fuel tanks.  The Syrians had learned from other battles that the IDF air bursts.  Would puncture and set the fuels tanks on fire.

Here are some pictures of Syrian T62,T54 & T55:
