Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry M3 Grant Airfix 1/35


Recommended Posts

Hello Folks, this one took rather a lot of work, the basic kit is nice but the interior is configured for the Lee.

As a result I have 3D printed a lot of details for the inside and I am really pleased with it (although I did not manage to take enough good photos)

 

The other downside is that North African Grants seem to have normally been fitted with the chunky tread led tracks rather than the plain tread supplied with the kit. To sort this, I used the Mini Art workable plastic tracks which are excellent.

That would be the WE210's then. I had the same problem when I built the Academy version, many years ago. I got around it by using the tracks from a Dragon Sherman lll. Trouble was, I then had to source another set for the Sherman when I came to build that. Robbing Peter to pay Paul doesn't always work out.

Anyway, back to the model. You've done a great job on it. Paint job is excellent and nice work on the main gun canvas cover.
