M3A3

Model by Sean Dunnage

            
    

The model depicts a vehicle as seen in Tunisia in 1943 used by the British Army. Various crew modifications have happened and they are shown in this model.

The model is of course the M3A3 from AFV Club. I have removed the turret and added an interior using Accurate Armours set from its M3A3 conversion set along with a multitude of scratchbuilt details. The exterior was detailed by adding bullet splash rails, MG mounts, a canvas tilt made from lead sheet and brass round stock , AA tools and stowage bin, fenders and dust shields from plastic card, and new light guards from the same material. Welds and other minor details were also added. Spare photo-etch from Aber and Eduard were utilised in various positions.

The model was painted using Model Master Lacquer colours as well as Tamiya latex.
