Revival of the T-55 Tank. The second Life of a Toy.
This toy tank is the dream of every teenager in the USSR. But for most it was a pipe dream, because for many parents from the USSR it was quite expensive.
Picking up this toy, I understood why it is so expensive. Highly detailed aluminum parts, high quality plastic and a shooting gun!!!!
But today I came across this tank with a faulty cannon and no tracks, later I learned that it is rather difficult to find them intact in our time.
Repair process:
Having removed all the old paint with a wash, I very carefully degreased everything and painted it with a primer in two layers.
I don't know why, but I decided to draw this toy with a brush. I will say right away that it was quite difficult, I had to apply 4 layers with intermediate drying so that the color lay evenly.
For high-quality painting of the body, I had to remove all the wheels, and then remake the wheel axles on a lathe.
Rumor has it that this tank had only one drawback - its shells were lost on the very first day after unpacking)).
I don't know what the original shells for this tank looked like, so I made the ones I decided myself.
It was quite a difficult and interesting job, I did not sleep until 5 am to post the video today, now I am very tired, but I like it, because while I am typing this text, my son is playing with this tank and trying to “shoot” the cat .
All the peaceful sky above your head. Take care of yourself!
Sincerely, Max.
