I built a true what-if around a late war Russian light tank subject. This would be a combination of the T-70 and T-50 designs. The tank had the 45mm gun and was basically a scaled down T-34. A three man crew and better armor. 
I used the old Revell T-34/85 as a base and parts from the old bits box!

That works really well  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

Can I ask what scale it is ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I agree - that really looks like a believable development.

Thank you for the comments. I believe it's around 1/40 scale originally. It scales well for a light tank compared to a 1/35 scale T-70.
Here is the original kit box.

That explains a lot :) I too was wondering about the scale, thinking it was too small to be a proper T-34 kit, but it makes sense now.
... I know all this and more ...

With the hundreds of prototypes the russians made this sort of machine wouldn't surprise me at all .
So yes very very plausible  :thumbsup:
Very nice build matey 👍 😀
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .
