I’m just in the process of finishing my T-64BM right now, just adding the weathering and finishing touches. It’s my first Trumpeter kit and I’ve got to say very impressed with it. I did however, get a metal gun barrel for it. As you said the one in the kit isn’t the best; I used the ABER 125mm 2A46M set and it fits very well. However, you will need to counter weight the turret with some lead in the back and I made a clip on the back of the turret ring to help keep it on a bit more securely. The up-grade track set Trumpeter does for the T-64 are much nicer then the stock ones, anyone thinking of doing this kit may want to think about getting them too.
I’ve been enjoying your kit reviews… I think it would be helpful if you mention the year of release (or copyright) if available, sometimes I catch it when you show the side of the box; I like that you’re also showing older (‘vintage’) kits as well as new releases; Regards from Rotterdam! 🫡

@@PileOfKits Too bad I can't add pictures to UA-cam comments, I would've posted some up when I finish it.

thank you.i will add it to my descriptions in the future specially on vintage kits!
This kit came out in 2020, though the T-64 base kit is going to be a bit older.
Another quality kit review now how bout a build review?
would you like me to review while i'm doing a build or after its completed ?
@@PileOfKits I don't think you've done a review of a kit as you're building it so that would be nice plus weathering and final reveal.
nasty naxie
