About product

1:35 Late mantlet with the 6pdr Mk.V gun for the Churchill III and Crusader III (PANZER ART)

A replacement part from the Polish maker PANZER ART for British tanks armed with the six-pounder gun. The set covers the late version of the gun mantlet together with the Mk.V barrel and is made as a replacement for the plastic parts of a kit. It is not a tank model but an accessory that has to be completed with your own Churchill III or Crusader III kit.

The real subject

The six-pounder gun replaced the weaker two-pounder in British tanks and for the first time gave them a weapon capable of penetrating the frontal armor of the German tanks of the day. The longer Mk.V version differs from the shorter Mk.III in barrel length and with it in the shape of its seating in the mantlet. The Churchill III was an infantry tank with tracks running around the whole hull, while the Crusader III was a fast cruiser tank of the North African theater.

Building and painting tips

First wash the resin parts in lukewarm water with detergent so that mold release agent residue disappears from the surface. Cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a cutter, never break them off, and level the area with a file. Protect your airways when sanding resin. Glue the parts with super glue, as ordinary cement for plastic will not hold on resin. A coat of primer before painting is advisable, as it unifies resin and plastic.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of British Second World War equipment in 1:35
  • Owners of Churchill III and Crusader III kits
  • Modelers bothered by the mold seam on a plastic barrel
  • More experienced modelers used to working with resin

FAQ

It is not. This is a replacement part for the gun mantlet, and the model itself has to be obtained separately.

The Mk.III is the shorter early version of the six-pounder and the Mk.V the longer late one. They differ in barrel length and in the seating in the mantlet.

Super glue. Cement for polystyrene does not work on resin.

The manufacturer makes it for the usual Churchill III and Crusader III kits in 1:35 and does not name a particular brand in the designation of the set.
