Overview of the Tamiya 35327 1/35 Russian BT-7 Tank Model 1937

This 1/35 scale Tamiya model recreates the Russian BT-7 Tank, Model 1937, offering a clear look at an influential prewar design. Originating from 1935 with roots in Walter Christies work, the BT-7 earned the nickname Bystrokhodny Tank or Fast Tank thanks to its speed and relatively light armour. The model highlights the 47mm main gun and early sloped front plating that foreshadowed later Soviet designs such as the T-34.

Accurate detailing and assembly notes for enthusiasts

The Tamiya kit balances historical detail with buildability. Key features like the angled frontal section, large road wheels and the characteristic turret profile are well modelled. The suspension components and track sections are engineered for neat assembly, making the project rewarding for modellers who value both realism and a logical build sequence.

The kit suits an intermediate modeller: many parts fit cleanly and the instructions are clear. Expect careful trimming and some photo-etch handling; basic tools and patience will give the best result.
Use enamel or acrylic military greens of the correct prewar palette and a flat varnish for a realistic finish. Weathering with washes and subtle dry-brushing emphasises panel lines and suspension detail.
Yes, model shops offer replacement metal barrels, etched sets and resin accessories that complement this kit. Check compatibility and instructions before modifying major components.
