I am no expert in the exact dimensions of the T34/85 but compared to drawings and pictures, it looks good to me and, personally, I find that more important. As will be mentioned elsewhere, the turret is moulded in two parts and is finished with a smooth surface. One of the familiar characteristics of the T34 is the rough casting of the turret and this is much better handled on the Tamiya T34/76.
Kit instructions…
The instructions are concise but you do have to look carefully to work out where some of the smaller pieces fit as there is not always location pins and holes.
Decals…
The kit decals look to be good quality; in register, good colour opacity and not too much carrier film. We’ll see how these go down later in the build that will be starting in SMN imminently.
Conclusion…
Highly recommended, what more can I say – great kit, lots of detail, great value for money
