Minairons Miniatures: T26 and Bilbao armoured car




Hi, I just found this news from Minairons Miniatures: At Minairons Miniatures we first released a plastic Panzer I A in 1:72nd scale version; then we re-sized it to 1:100th ordered its production in that scale as well, but didn't forget to start designing a new AFV altogether. This was the resin Bilbao Armoured Car, which is currently in production too --this time in 1:100th scale first, to be re-scaled later. So it had come the time for designing another Inter-wars piece of armour and, quite logically, we aimed at one of the most widespread tanks of SCW: the ubiquitous T-26 v. 1933. So, while waiting for the Bilbao releasing, here you are some first previews of our T-26 --that will be again produced in plastic. Not the final design yet, because it must be analyzed by the mould maker, who is to take decisions on some technical features, and make eventual suggestions on some other as well. 


If willing to see more of this design, please watch this, where the pictures can be seen at a higher resolution. For consistence with the Panzer I A schedule, the T-26 model will be released in 1/72nd scale first. But all three models are to be re-sized during 2013 to the rest of scales we have in the pipeline (1:100, 1:72 and 1:56), as well as a fourth model we've already put in queue too.
