So this is next to be built will under the influence of this T-34 fever I have caught!
The instructions. It's obviously a rehash of a Zvezda mold but the instructions are multi-paged compared to the Zvezda single double sided simple affair.

Any suggestions on what needs to be corrected on this kit :?:

Not sure Jamie, can you post some sprue shots? It looks like a late war T-34 with the solid road wheels and ventilator bubbles together.

Looking at the instructions, it looks like a T-34..... :Y) I don't see many if any wartime photos with those canisters across the rear plate...I think they were for generating smoke not carrying fuel. (edit: I found one and some color plates)

How's the moldings? Typical hit or miss?

So - now I am getting a little more savvy about these T-34's. They aren't as easy to keep track of is what I gather, like the German Panzers which are easily distinguished as to the model and mark but there are some definite patterns I have begun to notice as I dig into the references.

While this kit is maybe not perfect it does seem to be a good starting point.

Here are some images of the what comes with the sprues.

Gonna try something new here- take your cursor (you'll have to press down on your mouse and "grab" it) over this Flash image and you can rotate a 360 of the Italeri turret, which has some good points when compared to other kits as well as some awful surface casting texture



Let me know how the flash works, any iPad users?

The flash seems to work ok.....nice idea. No ipad user. I agree about the surface texture, plus the vertical. lines look to big.

As to the kit, the rear engine deck cover with the screen looks odd....wrong shape and the screen is too big? Not meaning to be too critical here as all kits have issues but that one is obvious.

I'm really too tired to get into other issues but there are a few.... ;B; Not at my computer right now so no references handy.

Overall not too bad a kit but maybe since you're just researching them is ok to you?

I have an ipad, I don't see why Apple allows Flash, it's frustrating.
