Trumpeter 01567 1/35 representation of the KV-1S/85 Soviet heavy tank

Will this kit require aftermarket detailing?

The kit includes finely moulded parts, but builders seeking extra realism sometimes add photo-etched bits or turned metal barrels for improved scale fidelity.

Is this kit compatible with figure sets or extra accessories?

Yes, standard 1/35 figures and common accessory sets match this scale. Plan positioning and scale of extras before fixing components to ensure a cohesive final scene.

How do I achieve authentic weathering?
