Simon NagorsnikNice that you are back again!
This project is the perfect restart- hope to see good results😁

MonaThank You for the comments and support guys this is a fun build ..I've found Tini Hendriks and Dietmar Bogatzki's Mini Art T55 builds to be very Inspirational .
14 February 2022, 21:32
Monathank you Villiers de Vos and Muchas gracias El Joker pocas cosas para corregir

MonaI dropped a part , the indoor /outdoor Carpet monster (in my work space ) has claimed it ..slow going working out of sequence , till I find it
19 February 2022, 22:07
Dietmar BogatzkiOh you are fighting against the Carpet Monster too, Mona 🙂 Just orderd some Spare Parts to continue... so slow Progress here too 🙁
20 February 2022, 06:28
Tini HendriksI have lino, which isnt a insurance to find the parts back. Days after scratching the diamond shaped plates who fit on the deepwading equipment I found the part back… 🙈
20 February 2022, 07:51
MonaI opened the spare transmission kit , and I shall use the item from it ..good thing for "spares" . When I locate 👀 that little thing ,I'll just replace it in that kit
20 February 2022, 18:44
MonaThank you ,Simon and Bobby with so many variants and countries using T-54's and T-55's build options are many ...plus I have 5 more Mini Art (T-54/ T-55) kits to assemble ..I will try not to disappoint

Monafinished the right side last night , painted and added wear both sides .turned out better than the track's on my previous build (yay)
25 February 2022, 16:13
FinnLooking good, for some reason my eyes are drawn to the tracks - well done
26 February 2022, 22:47
Simon NagorsnikNice finish on the tracks, maybe a little more bare steel and they're perfect!
26 February 2022, 23:03
MonaThank you Finn, Simon and Carlos .@ Simon I agree a little more steel ,on the tracks ..was going easy on that ,trying not to over do it . I'm pleased I didn't break those fuel lines and managed to get the PE in place (yay!)
27 February 2022, 03:28
Mona@ Tini ,slow going on the left side today ..It's amazing how far those tiny parts fly ..while trying to trim and clean them up (lol)..spent awhile crawling around on the floor .👀..but I found it
28 February 2022, 00:36
MonaI managed to salvage ..the Headlight frame , after damaging it during removal from the sprue .next pic's I upload, it will be in place
2 March 2022, 03:37
Tini HendriksI saw you can buy the whole headlight (with frame) in 3d printing. Wonder why somebody should sell something as fragile as that? 😜 #not
2 March 2022, 12:40
MonaYes, I noticed also there is also aftermarket assembly made by A.Mig #8086 ..on my wish list for next time .
2 March 2022, 16:18
Dietmar BogatzkiYou are not alone with your problems with the Headlight frame...🙁
2 March 2022, 18:27
Mona@ Dietmar , yes The headlight Blues ..Mini Art (T54 /T55) kits definitely are not entry level ..and work is not to be attempted if one has had too much coffee or tea (lol)
2 March 2022, 21:14
Dietmar BogatzkiNo entry level *LOL* than be happy not to start wiht their Tram 🙂
3 March 2022, 06:28
Mona@Dietmar , yes knew better long before purchasing ...the challenge was why I bought several, My first Mini Art kits purchased were a pair of MK1 Dingo's ...The attention to detail of Mini Art products ,well worth the effort
3 March 2022, 23:43
Tini HendriksOh dear, @Dietmar. Every time I see the tram I got a diorama fantasy, born during playing an old MOH OR coD on the gameconsole 😉. My T-55 is my first Mini-art. is this it, @Mona, the headlight? On the 55 it's a double one.
4 March 2022, 08:29
Mona@ Tini , yes it has just a single head light ,different on the Tiran 4 kit also . I will put in the lens later it the build
4 March 2022, 16:19
MonaI know how you might feel about that , had cats ..one had it's way with a 1/12 scale Lotus 78 , but they just desire to enjoy them also ...go easy👍
4 March 2022, 20:05
Monathank you Paul ,it has the radiator in it now and I'm working on the turret yet to take pic's of it
13 March 2022, 16:20
Monalooking forward to my next build ..a IDF M-60 .... a different brand kit and plastic not so soft and fussy
13 March 2022, 20:35
Monahere's the radiator , I've one more little item to stuff in there 👍..the rod between the transmission and the fan assembly 🙂
14 March 2022, 01:53
Mona@ Villiers , yes it is progressing well the turret interior putting up a fuss (ammunition rack) but otherwise nicely
14 March 2022, 16:22
Monawell I've made it to page 19 in the instruction book ,steps 68 ,69 and 70 (hooray 🙂 👍) I've never assembled a kit that has 1000+ pieces , still 20 build steps more to go ..before final paint 😉
16 March 2022, 02:03
Villiers de VosHang in there. It looks great and we are all still glued to our seats 🙂

John WilkesI started a tall ship four years ago. Each deck is like a kit and each mast too. I had to set it aside to refresh myself.
29 March 2022, 00:26
Mona@ John Wilkes agreed its slow going on this one for that reason , seems my skill level depends on how well my fingers and hands want to cooperate ,broke my right wrist last November is more swollen and hurts even more now than then ...plenty of time to study the instructions
29 March 2022, 16:58
Mona@Ben M , the 1000 + is incorrect I exaggerated , just under for this kit and transmission kit combined ,some items not used . MiniArt put the parts an detail stats on the box art , when this series started but stopped . Only 1/3 of the ones in my stash have the part totals
1 May 2022, 18:18
Mona@ Robert ..I really haven't been too motivated on this one since last February ,as I'm not sure how to display when done ..shame to build it then close it all up . almost done with my Centurion Shot Kal , then I'll finish this before starting anything else 🙂
8 January 2023, 16:59
Shar DipreeVery nice. I like the technical details. How easy is the kit and the transmisson/engine-extension to build?
19 March 2023, 17:31
Mona@ Shar D , it wasn't difficult ,the linkage for the transmission a bit tricky ,and the instructions not super specific in the relationship of pieces for the brakes ..all the plastic for what would be tubing/piping ..on the engine very easy to break and I had to make several pieces I broke removing from the sprue....It wasn't difficult or "real" easy ...pays to review the instructions prior to each step , don't attempt after too much coffee or when nervous 😉
