Overview of the Hobby Boss 1/35 BA-10 Armoured Car

The Hobby Boss 1/35 BA-10 kit captures the rugged profile of the Soviet armoured car, offering clear moulded parts and a faithful silhouette. The BA-10's combination of mobility and protection is reflected in the kit's chassis and hull shapes.

Service Role and Scale Accuracy

Originally used for reconnaissance and light support, the BA-10's characteristic six-wheel layout is modelled with attention to proportion. The kit supplies the basic lines and surface detail needed for historically minded builds.

Build Considerations

Expect a moderate build where part fit and neat assembly determine the final result. Careful sanding and trial fitting will help produce smooth joins before painting and finishing stages.

Presentation and Collection Use

Once painted and weathered, the BA-10 presents well on its own or as part of a larger WWII display. Its scale pairs nicely with common 1/35 figures and accessories for fuller scenes.

The kit is best for modellers with some prior builds under their belt; novices can complete it but should allow extra time for detailing and fit work.
Most kits include basic decals for markings; use decal setting solution and apply on a gloss base to avoid silvering, then seal with a clear coat.
Layer washes, chipping using a sponge or fine brush, and light dusting with pigments will add operational wear suited to the BA-10's service profile.
Yes, you can adapt paint schemes and accessories to represent different fronts; research period references to select accurate camo and marking options.
Standard 1/35 figures, vehicles and stowage sets are compatible and can help create convincing scenes around the BA-10.
