Overview of the Trumpeter 01561 KV-1M1939 1:35 Kit

The Trumpeter 01561 1/35 Scale KV-1M1939 Model Kit recreates the early-war Soviet KV-1 with an emphasis on authentic proportions and surface detail. Model makers can reproduce the tank's heavy armor plates and classic wartime form with the kit components provided.

Model Background and Accuracy Notes

The KV-1, carrying the name of Kliment Voroshilov, represented a significant heavy tank concept from 1939 and was notable for its protection. This kit depicts the earlier mount with the L-11 76.2 mm gun, a configuration that in some service examples was upgraded to the F-32. The 1:35 scale is a standard for military modelling and supports high-detail presentation.

Construction Guide and Exhibition Use

Featuring 249 plastic parts and one photo-etched item, the assembly offers a satisfying challenge and results in a museum-style model when painted and finished carefully. It works well as a standalone display or grouped with other 1:35 military models.

Yes, builders often fit metal barrels, extra photo-etch sets or resin accessories to raise the detail level; verify compatibility before purchase.
Assembly time depends on finishing goals; a basic build might take several sessions while a fully weathered display model can take much longer.
The kit's decals are supplied for Soviet Army markings; for different unit markings check decal aftermarket providers for additional sheets.
Keep dust off with a soft brush and avoid direct sunlight to protect paints; if displayed in a cabinet consider a light seal coat to preserve weathering effects.
