Hobby Boss 83853 1/35 Soviet T-28 Medium Tank - Scale armour for enthusiasts

The T-28 was an early medium tank design from the 1930s intended to support infantry and overcome defensive works. It offered engineers a testbed for ideas that later appeared in more advanced Soviet designs.

A subject with layered historical detail

This 1/35 model captures the complexity of the original T-28, delivering over 800 parts that encourage careful assembly and attention to historical features for a convincing final result.

Key kit features and assembly notes

Features include multi-slide moulded sections for accurate shapes, plus delicate photo-etched elements for fine detail. Individual track links and included copper cable improve authenticity for display or diorama use.

The kit focuses on structural detail; check the kit contents for decal inclusion. If none are supplied, aftermarket decal sheets with period markings are widely available from specialist suppliers.
The kit includes many fine parts, but modellers often add weathering, paint chipping and extra fittings to enhance realism depending on display intent.
Small files, fine tweezers, precision cutters, a hobby knife and a magnifier help with photo-etched parts and individual track links.
