Academy 13554 1/35 Interpretation of the T-34-85 Built at Ural Factory No.183

The T-34-85 was a key Soviet medium tank introduced in the later stages of World War II, produced at Ural Tank Factory No.183. This 1/35 scale Academy 13554 kit offers a faithful study subject for modellers focused on period vehicles.

Period Role and Modelling Merit

The model reflects the enhancements that made the T-34-85 a stronger combat vehicle compared with earlier types, notably in armament and hull design. The kit provides the external detail needed for accurate mark making and weathering work.

Construction Guidance and Display Quality

Assembly involves multiple fine parts and benefits from steady hands and standard modelling practice. When complete and painted the finished model presents a convincing representation suitable for cabinets or museum-style displays.

Consult historical photographs and published paint guides for late-war Soviet units to choose appropriate hues and camouflage patterns. Paint manufacturers also publish charts that align with common period schemes.
Use gentle sanding, filler where needed, and careful priming before painting to reduce the appearance of joins. Patience during dry fitting and cleanup of sprue marks helps achieve a smooth finish.
