Kagero 41002 T-34 EN/PL is a unique modeling and historical publication that should be on the shelf of every World War II tank enthusiast. This is a comprehensive monograph dedicated to the legendary Soviet T-34/76 tank, published in both Polish and English. The book was prepared by the renowned author Tomasz Janiszewski and contains 56 A4-sized pages printed on high-quality glossy paper, ensuring excellent photo and illustration quality.

The aforementioned T-34/76 tank became a symbol of the effectiveness of Soviet armored forces. It participated in major World War II battles, such as the Battle of Kursk and Stalingrad. The examples described in the publication showcase different paint schemes (including captured vehicles used by German forces, repainted in Dunkelgrau RAL 7021).

I recommend Kagero 41002 T-34 EN/PL to both advanced modelers and intermediate hobbyists – I rate the difficulty level of using the materials at 1/5. An excellent choice for those seeking reliable historical sources and original decals, as well as inspiration for building Soviet and German armored vehicle models from World War II.
