Building the 1/35 scale model gives enthusiasts a chance to study its layout and mechanical simplicity while creating a historically informed display piece.

Model Building Features and Display Potential

This Italeri kit includes finely detailed chassis and body components that demand careful assembly and finishing. Builders will find opportunities for realistic weathering and rigging to enhance display value once the model is complete.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Part Count: Detailed components for accurate assembly
This kit is best for modellers with some experience. The fine parts and detailed chassis need steady hands and patience to assemble cleanly.
Acrylic or enamel model paints both perform well. Choose period-correct olive drab or grey tones and thin coats for crisp panel lines and realistic shading.
Dry-fit subassemblies before gluing, use plastic cement sparingly, and sand seams gently. Small gap-filling putty and light sanding will tidy joins for a professional finish.
