Nice work!
Thank you to take the time to present step by step pictures.
Must admit that the repetitive work involved in tank tracks and wheels is what is putting me off building a tank.
In your first post you mentioned that Google translate not doing a great job…try DeepL instead. It’s free and make a MUCH better translation job.

great to see you doing more of this tank well done for getting this far

Thank you all.

Actually, this repetitive work kills me too. So, since I build on weekend only, I took a weekend off and didn't build. This elongates the build, but I am not in a hurry.
Translation is not great, but I trust my experience. After all, the design is very logical.

Hello all.
One more step - suspension of the bogies. Or a simulation of it. Very simplified. I guess it's OK for this scale

Hello all.
So, the tracks. Usually, it's a nightmare for a builder, but not for this model. Some double layer strips , some side walls, some gluing tabs that I prepared and that's it. Nothing too difficult here.

And so, after a year, this T-84BM model is finished.
What I liked: it is a good design of a rare model. Although some things were simplified, it was done very correctly. It is a good pretty simple model.

What I did not like: side skirts are weakly designed, they tend to fold in. The hull should be build in one piece, requiring good building skills.
In summary, it is a good model, was fun building it.

congrats you got to the end well done and a nice build well done

[Boris]

Thank you!

[Igor]

Congraz on ending this project, Boris!
Never saw this kind of tracks design

[Boris]

Yes, it is quite weird design, but for this scale it looks good

Thank you !!!
