I'll build the T-26 from Zvezda with Komplekt ZIP conical turret with welded mask, combat lights, Eduard PE and Modelkasten tracks. Hope I'll have a time to add a German motorcycle.
My inspiration photo from waralbum

Well, i see that as far the tanks are on the top, so maybe i should start with 7TP :hmmm

Thanks for following guys :drinks

Having seen T-26 photos, I decided to make it with elements of early tanks - an idler without strengthening, a front skating rink completely rubber and an air intake without armor protection

And I'll use Zvezda's tank crew

Once again, this pic makes me thrilled that I only build armor in 1/72 scale! You're a braver man than I Gunga Din! I bow to your patience and persistence in getting these done! :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy

Small track links .......... They seem to get the best of me. Are you going to use a jig?
