Overview of the Tamiya 1/35 Panzer III Ausf.N

The Tamiya 25159 kit reproduces the Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf.N in 1/35 scale, supplied with ABERR photo-etched parts and a metal gun barrel to enhance surface fidelity and overall appearance.

Historical note and modelling appeal

The Panzer III saw extensive use in the early wartime years, with the Ausf.N fitted with a short 75mm gun for certain combat roles. This subject attracts model makers who value accurate silhouettes and period detail.

Construction tips and finishing ideas

For best results, fit the ABERR etched parts after primary assembly and use gentle sanding to ensure clean edges. The metal barrel accepts paint and weathering easily, producing a convincing focal point on the finished model.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic with metal components
  • Includes ABERR photo-etched parts
  • Metal gun barrel for added realism
  • Assembly required: Glue and paint not included
This is a static display kit. Converting it to run requires significant modification and custom parts, including motor mounts and drive mechanisms that are not provided.
Photo-etched parts are delicate and need steady hands and thin glue. Bending tools and a fast-acting adhesive help achieve precise placement without excess residue.
Prime the metal barrel first with a suitable metal primer, then use acrylic or enamel paints. Light weathering washes and dry brushing highlight surface detail effectively.
