Introducing the Academy 13290 1/35 T-34/85 112 Factory Production

The Academy 13290 1/35 T-34/85 112 Factory Production model kit accurately portrays the mid-war T-34/85, offering modellers a chance to recreate its characteristic silhouette and surface detail. The kit is aimed at those comfortable with precise assembly and finishing techniques.

Production Background and Evolution

The T-34/85 was a significant step up in firepower with its 85mm gun, and Factory 112 production reflects refinements used in combat. Builders can reference these changes when choosing markings and camouflage for an authentic look.

Detailing and Modelling Considerations

The kit features finely moulded parts that highlight plate joins and equipment fittings. Careful handling during removal from sprues and gentle sanding will preserve the crisp detail for painting and weathering.

Use in Collections and Exhibits

Fully built, the model becomes a strong exhibit piece that complements other 1/35 armoured vehicles. Thoughtful finishing and basework will enhance its presence in a display or shelf collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
  • Parts: Detailed with surface textures
This kit focuses on exterior detail; internal compartments are minimal, so it is best suited for external display rather than cutaway presentations.
The instructions include suggested colour schemes and decal placement, but modellers often consult reference books or online resources for unit-specific liveries.
This is a static plastic kit not designed for RC conversion without significant modification; adapting it would require custom motor mounts and suspension work.
Use plastic model cement for most joins and cyanoacrylate (super glue) for small parts or quick fixes, taking care not to damage fine detail.
