Comments:

Parts are solid cast resin, with some raised and recessed lines.
Otherwise, there is a smooth surface finish with some air holes. The
solar panels are solid slabs of resin, so it'll be difficult to model
some them in their zigzag type of arrangement. The ball bearings are
to be used to simulate tanks on the exterior of the station. The
instructions include a parts inventory and a series of exploded
drawings to build the station module by module. Side and front view
drawings of the general configuration during the mid 1990's, along
with a minimal painting guide are also included in the instructions.
My kit included some extra parts, always a welcome touch.
