Russian T-44

Post by BarryC »

Can a T-55 lower hull and running gear be used to kitbash one?

I think it would make a great build using the Hooben T-55 and a T-34/85 turret and scratch built kitbashed upper hull. :thumbup:

I think it is really good fit for the T34/85 turret!

Awesome build Sir! Thank you very much for taking your time to post the photos. :thumbup:

I have always thought the 85mm turret looked out of place (too big) on the T34, it looks much better on the T44 chassis.

You would not have any build photos would you?

Thanks again,
Barry
