Brings back nice memories - had built one 30+ years ago (definitely not as good as yours, have to say...)

Thank you very much Zoran. Actually I was bought it more than 10 yeras and just find opprtunity to finish it last year. I also thank you for your nice comment.

I also have AMX 30 DCA started by my father 25+ years ago, and plan to finish it this year...

Is that Heller kit or another one Zoran ? In this kit I built there was some problems only on suspension system but other sides were OK for me .

It's also Heller's kit, scalemates.com/kits/133099-heller-81123-amx-30-dca
The problem with mine is that suspension system, which is already glued in place by my dad, is wrinkled due to long sitting in a box, but I hope to solve it... Thanks for heads up, though! 🙂

You are welcome my friend. All of us here to help each other, right? My opinion, don't touch them if they haven't any problem and finish it as staright from the box.

Zoran Jakovljevic
You're right, of course, that's what modellers' community is about 🙂
Let's hope I'll finish it soon and if I do, I'll bring it to Bursa in March 2026 - of course, hope to meet you there!

Dear Zoran, Turkey's biggest scale modeling event will be in Istanbul as 11th Istanbul Model Show in May 2026. I'll be there and hope to see you in the event where the city continents meet

Hi Tahir, sorry, but for years in May I'm regular at Slovenian SVM festival in Pivka which I can't miss, since it is held in their museum - former JNA barracks where I served in 1989 :-/
Nevertheless, seeing that Bursa is not far from Istanbul, there'll be a chance to meet 🙂
