The ICM 35517 delivers a faithful 1/35 rendition of the ZiL-131 KShM, a command and staff vehicle from the Soviet fleet. The kit gives modellers the chance to build a compact but detail-rich representation of this workhorse truck.
The ZiL-131 KShM combined a rugged platform with a functional body layout, making it popular for reconstruction in scale. This model highlights key features so builders can explore weathering, stowage and service markings associated with the era.
Check fit on subassemblies before final glue to preserve fine detail. After painting and decalling, a simple vignette or rubble base will enhance the vehicle's story and give it presence on a shelf or in a display case.
