Scale Study of the 1/35 39M CSABA

The 1/35 Hungarian 39M CSABA Armoured Car by Hobby Boss captures the silhouette and panel detail of this interwar reconnaissance vehicle. The kit focuses on accurate proportions and surface texture to give modellers a faithful base for finishing.

Operational History and Role

Brought into service around 1939, the 39M CSABA was used mainly for scouting and communications. Its rotating turret and multi axle drive helped in rough country, and the model reflects these practical design features.

Model Build and Detailing Suggestions

Parts are crisply moulded to reproduce the CSABA's angular bodywork and turret fittings. Builders can expect a rewarding project that benefits from careful sanding, painting and subtle weathering to enhance realism.

Specifications

Assembly time varies by skill, but expect several evenings to a couple of weekends for careful fitting, painting and finishing.
Yes, model shops offer photoetched parts and resin upgrades for finer detail, though basic builds look impressive with careful paint work.
No, glue and paint are not included. You will need polystyrene cement or superglue and suitable hobby paints.
Subtle dusting, panel fade and light chipping suit reconnaissance vehicles; avoid extreme battle damage for typical field appearance.
