Hobbyboss 1/35 T35 1938/39

[coolhand]

Hi all

 

Thought I would show a few pics of my latest build, the Russian T35 heavy tank by Hobbyboss. As you can see construction is nearly complete, as is the basic paint job. I have left off a few parts, like the boarding ladders and frame antenna, as they were not shown in the reference photos. I have made a small mistake and fitted the early style of drivers hatch rather than the late on that is not even mentioned in the instructions! The kit has been brush painted in Revell Aqua 65 which is the closest colour I had to Russian 4BO. This is the first Hobbyboss kit I have built, and I have to say I am pretty impressed. Although I can't speak for the kit's accuracy, it has been a fun build (apart from a few self-inflicted photo etch issues!) and it builds into an impressive model.

 

Enjoy photos

 

 

 

Cheers

Hi Andy,

An impeccable construction, great base to "work" it, with many possibilities... I like this version of the "Landship" better than the early model, of which I made one of "Zvezda" and it is published in the RTI forum section, although it also has its charm of interwar models.

If you are interested in seeing it, comment and I'll give you a link.

Cheers and TC
