Compact 1/48 KV-1 Replica by Tamiya

The KV-1 made its mark in early WWII for heavy armour and strong armament. This 1/48 scale Tamiya kit captures the tank's key features such as the 76.2mm main gun and the squared welded turret, providing a faithful miniature for display and study.

Authentic Background and Build Accuracy

Introduced before the war, the KV-1 stood out for its resistance to contemporary anti-tank rounds. While its initial production run ended around 1941, the platform remained influential across later designs. This kit reproduces the 1940 specification for accurate historical modelling.

Kit Layout and Assembly Notes

Tamiya 32535 includes a diecast chassis that gives the model a realistic heft. The tracks are produced as straight, single-piece parts to simplify fitting. With three decal options supplied, builders can select different markings, and the model works well alongside Tamiya 1/48 WWII Russian Infantry and Tank Crew accessories for dioramas.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Overall Length: 141mm
  • Chassis: Diecast for added weight
  • Assembly Type: Tracks with single-piece straight parts
  • Markings: Includes 3 sets
The 1/48 scale balances compact size with fine detail, showing turret shape, gun profile and surface features suitable for display and close-up photos.
The chassis is diecast metal, adding stability and a realistic weight compared with fully plastic kits.
Use enamel or acrylic paints matched to WWII Soviet schemes and apply subtle washes and dry brushing to bring out panel lines and surface wear.
