hey bros,

I have a lil delema here, I have a combo SU-85 (DML & Tamiya) that I have constructed and have given it a bit of battle damage.

My delema, with the fenders slightly bent up, I plan to have a couple of the side fuel cells still attached, but a couple of them gone. Hence my question:

I have the Aber and Eduard PE sets. Also the Tank Master resin pieces and the original stock (both) parts. But what would be some good suggestions on your part?

I plan to experiment with some soldering on the Aber set, but not too sure how it will look.

Oh well, thoughts welcome.
Dave

Jeff,

Thanks bro! Forgot about that site and was confused with the difference of these two sets and no real clear shot.

Then, after seeing your reference, the brain clicked! Went to the pics, and there where my shots of the SU-100. Now, on to the Aber set and all those freekin' lil parts!

Yes and they are Freakin little they look real nice while on their little frets until you take them off and drop one and the say a few good words about them.
yes that was one thing about the Russians at least they had a lot of parts that went from one to another tank
