A photo-etched set of ammunition cans for American .50 caliber (12.7 mm) machine guns in the older fit, 1:35 scale from Voyager Model. These are add-on accessories for models and dioramas, not a kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
A set of photo-etched parts, from which you assemble sheet ammunition cans for belted ammunition for the American .50 caliber heavy machine gun. The designation of the older pattern refers to an earlier fit of the can, which differs from the later one in the shape of the lid and the handle. The set is not tied to one particular kit; it suits anywhere you need a convincing load or equipment.
Ammunition cans belong on the fenders and hulls of armored vehicles, in the beds of trucks, at firing positions and in a display case beside figures. It is precisely small equipment of this type that turns a model into a scene — cans scattered about, a lid open, a belt propped up. Because these are general accessories, you will make use of them on American equipment across periods; the .50 caliber machine gun and its cans have served essentially unchanged for a very long time.
Plastic cans tend to be solid and have thick walls. A photo-etched can is folded from sheet, so it has correctly thin edges and can even be built with the lid open and the inside visible. The catches, hinges and handle come out crisply, which is not possible with plastic.
Fold them in a bender and finish the edges with a smooth jaw, so that the corners are square. Secure the joints with a drop of cyanoacrylate applied with a wire and wipe any excess away at once. After degreasing, use a primer for metal and paint in the basic olive shade of American equipment. The cans used to be marked with white or yellow lettering; you can add the text from decals of your own. A dark wash into the pressings and fine wear along the edges help at the end.
These are add-on accessories. The model, glue, paints and decals are not included in the package.
