Well, I bought the Trumpeter T-54 kit a few weeks back, and had a look around for something interesting to do with it, then I came across the Iraqi Enigma command tank, and fell in love.
So without further ado, here;s the start of this build!
First front box added, basically finished, except from a few small items. You can also see i've textures the parts of the glasis that will be visible.
Rear/top of the armour boxes
Nice sloped armour.
And how it stands right now, next up i'll start working on the turret armour pieces.
Thanks for looking!

Looks good so far. I will definately keep an eye on this thread.
I have a Tamiya T-55 that I wanted to add a Verlinden Enigma kit to. My skill level is such that scratchbuilding anything would be a disaster.
