Hobby Boss 82473 - 1/35 PLA ZSD90 Scale AFV

This 1/35 scale Hobby Boss kit represents the PLA ZSD90 Armoured Personnel Carrier with an emphasis on accurate external geometry and surface detail. The subject reflects a practical troop transport used in modern mechanised formations.

Context and Vehicle Role

The ZSD90 embodies a focus on carrying infantry under light protection while retaining mobility. Studying and building the model helps modellers understand trade-offs between armour, capacity and transportability in light AFVs.

Build Advice and Presentation Ideas

The kit presents several small, finely moulded parts that reward careful gluing and paintwork. After assembly the model suits weathering techniques that bring out panels and join lines, and it displays well with complementary contemporary AFVs.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35

Intermediate skill is recommended due to delicate parts and alignment tasks; experienced beginners can complete it with patience and careful preparation.
After priming, both acrylic and enamel modelling paints work well on PS plastic; thin coats preserve the kit's fine detail.

Yes, external detail can be enhanced with resin or photo-etched parts, though some modification may be required to fit certain upgrades.
