Russian gunboat.
« on: August 05, 2014, 10:46:13 pm »
A while back there was a build blog on a Russian gunboat with , I believe, a T34 turret stuck on the front.
I cannot find it now that I want it ! Any help great fully received .
Many thanks

Many thanks Robert, unfortunately it looks like it never made it to hull availability or kit.

Rob,

Watch eBay. Every now and then a set of plans (from Poland, or Russia I think) will show up.

it's a fairly simple hull to build. Here are a couple pictures of my work in progress BKA-1124.

Many thanks to all who commented by message as well as here on this ' Tank Boat'
The good news for me is that Christian at mtbhulls is in the process of making a mould for this hull in 1/16 scale.
 That's around 60 by 9 ish in inches.
Trumpeter do a very good T34/76 kit in the same scale for turrets ( currently available on ebay from China at a much reduced price)
So this one is a 'go' despite the 10000 rivet details needed.
Once again many thanks to the helpful people here on Mayhem.

My pleasure to be able to help. Enjoy the build! I hope a picture of the FG hull gets posted someday. Maybe I'll do a hull refit away from my scratch built one  :)

Check out 'forgebear' on ebay for possible T34 turrets - he supplies parts etc for the 1/16 tank fraternity.
