Hobby Boss 83853 1/35 Soviet T-28 Medium Tank - Compact armour history

The Soviet T-28 was developed in the early 1930s as a medium tank to support infantry assaults and to help break fortified positions. It was not a decisive combat workhorse, but it played a key role in testing design ideas that influenced later Soviet armour.

Recreating a period vehicle with care

This 1/35 kit from Hobby Boss reproduces the T-28s form and engineering detail, offering more than 800 parts for modellers who want an involved build that mirrors the original vehicle's complexity.

Detailed construction and kit highlights

The kit includes multi-slide moulded components for the turret and hull, plus photo-etched parts to lift fine detail. Individual track links and supplied copper cable enhance realism and make the finished model stand out on a shelf or in a diorama.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Length: 214mm

This kit suits intermediate to advanced builders because of the high part count and fine photo-etched pieces. Familiarity with small-part handling and precise gluing helps a lot.
Use standard polystyrene cement or CA glue for small subassemblies, and thin acrylic or enamel paints for smooth coverage. Primer and a fine brush or airbrush will improve final results.
You can assemble and display the kit unpainted, but painting highlights the moulded detail and realistic textures, especially the individual tracks and copper cable.
