Hobby Boss 1/48 Russian KV-1 Model 1942 Heavy Cast Turret Replica

The KV-1 Model 1942 with its heavy cast turret is a landmark of wartime Soviet armour, noted for thick protection and rugged design. This Hobby Boss rendition aims to reproduce the look and proportions of the original vehicle, reporting features such as the 76.2 mm ZIS-5 main gun and armour up to 95 mm where applicable, making it a strong subject for display and historical modelling.

Assembly Appeal and Display Potential

This 1/48 kit gives a satisfying build for hobbyists who value historical accuracy and tidy detailing. The heavy cast turret is modelled with care so modellers can explore construction and detailing techniques, and the finished miniature makes a solid display that communicates the tank's battlefield role.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: PS plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
  • Part count: Not specified
The kit focuses on the heavy cast turret profile and hull proportions, and represents key external details like the 76.2 mm ZIS-5 gun and prominent armour lines familiar to the 1942 production variant.
The model includes fine parts that reward careful assembly and painting; it is best suited to hobbyists with some prior kit experience rather than complete beginners.
You will need plastic cement, hobby knives, fine files, primer and appropriate paints. Brushes or an airbrush will help achieve the authentic finish expected on a 1/48 scale armour project.
