Hobby Boss 83828 1/35 Finnish T-50 Tank Model Overview

The Hobby Boss 83828 1/35 Finnish T-50 Tank recreates the Finnish adaptation of the Soviet T-50 light tank, giving military modellers a faithful subject from World War II. Its compact silhouette and reputation for mobility make it an interesting subject for display and historical dioramas.

Origins and Suitability for Display

The T-50 was conceived in the Soviet Union as a light infantry tank, featuring a compact turret and an advanced suspension for its era. Production was limited, but the vehicle left a clear mark on mid-century armoured design. This kit captures the T-50s defining lines and makes a strong centrepiece for a battlefield vignette or cabinet display.

Assembly Notes and Modeller Tips

Targeted at intermediate builders, this Hobby Boss kit balances detail with manageable complexity. The instruction sequence is clear and the plastic parts show good fit, which helps when aligning the turret and track runs. Expect to use plastic cement and suitable paints to complete an authentic finish.

Yes. Painting is necessary to achieve an authentic Finnish T-50 appearance; primer, base colours and subtle weathering will add realism.
Use standard polystyrene cement or CA for small subassemblies, and acrylic or enamel hobby paints for colouring. Test fit parts before gluing for best results.
