    The great thing about building a T-34 model is if it has fit problems it’s probably pretty accurate 😅

      Not for this kit. At least what I’ve heard. Border model don’t have a good reputation in terms of accuracy of the T-34

    Looks great for 60 bucks, it would look greater if I could find my glasses which are probably on the top of my head again…

    I too am impressed by the kits coming from border too. In fact impressed by almost all armor manufactures kits that have been released in last year. It feels like armor is really making a come back. I have been doing armor model building for over 35 years and have to say they sure have ""raised the bar in the last few years""...I can remember when Tamiya was the leader and now they better step it up because for what you some of these border, takom, das werks and rfm kits you get aloot more bang for the buck then what you pay for a Tamiya kit. And these new kits really have good footing and clear sprues. OH BTW thanks must go too Andy you have some great videos, that well edited, very informative, educative and easy to understand. Also i loved your new Sherman 1/16, a building it WOW and damn its a blast..U have conforted mw to 1/16 i just ordered the wiesel A1 and getting ready to order your Tiger 1. I really like to check the das werk stug ausf.g the first edition, but its out of stock..and its out of stock all the major distributors. Am trying to arrange a trip from Florida to Arizona to come check out your store....KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!! 🎖🪖

    Their T-34 that was released a year or two ago that was a “limited edition” and had something included with the first run had a few fit issues and from the reviews I saw on UA-cam it was pretty much a disappointment,but it still made a good looking tank,although with some ingenuity

  • @derekbaker3279
    @derekbaker3279 Рік тому

    Nice! Exciting! I'll definitely be getting this kit! Two questions:
    (a) Is there anywhere in the kit/instructions that states what factory manufactured this particular design of T34/85? Details & turret shape could differ quite a bit for T34s manufactured at various factories. I know there were at least two factories manufacturing the T34/85, and one of them may have been "Factory 183" & the other perhaps "Factory 174".
    (b) Also, was the turret welded plate steel, or was part of it cast? That would affect how 'gnarly' the texture should be on the turret surfaces.

    Two bad that did not rework the wheels from their previous release, the 112 snall turreted one, as they were not correct that correct there as they are not correct here. The fuel drum racks are of the wrong type and antenna holder pot is bad.
    Over all, as long as you key buy the special edition with figs the kit seems worth it, but after the initial release not that much

    This kit is a DOG. My kit had short shots on the sprocket wheels. The tracks would not stay together. The instructions were horrible. NO notations on where to glue or not and the workable suspension can easily be rendered unworkable. The fuel tanks must be assembled VERY carefully or they will not mount properly to the hull. This is the last Border model I will be purchasing.
    The plastic parts are excellent and the fit is great. This is common pattern for Border model kits. I had similar issues with the Panzer IV. The saving grace was no workable tracks.

      Dude don't falsify history. While it is true that the t-34 was design in Harkhiv, but the lead designer Koshkin was Russian. So was the lead Engineer for its motor.
      Furthermore, the development of the 85 was done at factory 112 in Gorky, near Moscow.

      @@red0guy You'd both be correct, saying "soviets", because USSR was not Russia alone. No one gave a damn about nationality at that time, especially russians vs ukrainians. And though taken very far, from what it initially was it has american, Christie's tank roots. Koshkin died long before T-34 was developed into model, carrying 85mm gun, somewhat like Reginald Mitchell did not see apogee of his Spitfire.

      @@gregsutton2400 No, there were Ukrainians involved in the process of designing producing T-34 (for example the designer of of the running gear), but the many of the designers ,including the head of the project, were Russians, so T-34 hardly makes an Ukrainian design. On the other hand T-64 might be considered as such.
