About product

M26 Pershing 1:35 (Hobby Boss)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American M26 Pershing heavy tank in 1:35 scale from Hobby Boss. The richly broken-up set contains photo-etched parts, decals and a well rendered engine compartment. The engine cover can be fixed in the open or the closed position, so the interior workmanship can be shown off.

The real subject

The M26 Pershing was an American heavy tank introduced at the end of the Second World War. It carried a powerful 90 mm gun, which gave it a chance against the most heavily armored German tanks. It took part in the fighting in Europe only in small numbers in the spring of 1945, but it made a greater mark later in the Korean War. In design it foreshadowed the postwar Patton family of American tanks.

Building and painting tips

Paint and weather the engine compartment before you decide whether to leave the cover open. Assemble and paint the tracks and the running gear separately. Use thin modeling cement on the plastic, prime the whole model and paint with an airbrush. You bring the olive base to life with a dark wash in the details, edges picked out with a dry brush and dust or mud effects with pigments on the running gear and the lower hull. Settle the decals onto a gloss coat.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American armor
  • Modelers who want to show the interior of the engine compartment
  • Anyone interested in the end of the Second World War and in the Korean War
  • More advanced builders, because of the high part count

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes, the set contains a detailed engine compartment and the engine cover can be fixed in the open or the closed position.

Given the high part count, the photo-etched parts and the interior it is rather a set for more advanced modelers, though it is manageable with basic experience.
