When I first looked at the photos of this SMK model, my eyes were immediately drawn to the weathering. The subtle dirt effects on the tracks and the slightly faded paint on the hull really add a touch of realism. It’s as if this model has been through some adventures of its own.

Now, a little tidbit about the actual SMK. It was a Soviet heavy tank prototype with quite the unique design, featuring two turrets! From what I’ve gathered, it was developed just before World War II and was part of a small series of multi-turret tanks. Imagine trying to maneuver that beast – sounds like a real challenge on the battlefield.

This particular model, built by GLOBASTER and based on Takom’s 1:35 scale kit, has a certain charm that makes it worth a closer look. The attention to detail, especially in the weathering, brings the historical context of this unusual tank to life. Even if you’re not a huge military history buff, the craftsmanship and story behind this model make it a fascinating piece.
