Are you going to model the small turret and give a choice of KV-1 or KV-2?

you are right charlie. above is the link to the drawings i used for reference. i think i remember there being more than one version of the KV2, though they were built in relatively low numbers and for only a short time. the differences between the two are minor. one thing i noticed, and did not incorporate into mine, is the roadwheels on the right side are slightly behind those on the left. i'm thinking this is for an opposing torsion bar suspension. there is a bit more of a chassis/hull difference for the /85. primarily semi-circular hull fillets extending over the fenders in the area of the turret. the JS series is similar but with many more chassis/hull improvements.

I love the KV-2 and I see it is now available to buy on your site.
I am definately going to get this one.
I would also like to get the Cromwell too but there is no link for it.
How do I get this one?
Thanks,
Russell
