siamese Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I'm starting to do some research on LCM Landing Crafts and found a couple in 1/35 scale. Was wondering if anyone has knowledge of these two kits. I did a quick search but didn't turn up with anything. I see Trumpeter 00347 and Italeri 6436. Does anyone know any positive or negative things about the kits and is there one better than the other. My thoughts were on a diorama depicting one that has come to shore on D-Day with Soldiers running on the beach. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 My I built the trumperter kit a few years ago, it went together really well I had no problems with the assembly. Not sure about how the dimensions measure up, I built mine with an M7 preist on deck . If you are going to depict a British one, in the research I did the British only had 3 in Normandy. I think italeri have a number of landing craft with troops already supplied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siamese Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Ozzy thanks about the information on the British ones. Will probably do a US one. Longshanks thanks for the link. That is what I need to figure out which one to get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
