About product

Sandbag armor for the M551 Sheridan (1:35, PANZER ART)

A resin detail set in 1:35 scale from PANZER ART. It represents improvised sandbag armor for the American M551 Sheridan light tank. It is an accessory to be fitted to the base kit, not a model of the vehicle. The exact contents of the package are stated by the manufacturer on the packaging.

The real subject

The M551 Sheridan was an American light airborne tank armed with a combined gun and guided missile launcher. In Vietnam crews strengthened the thinly armored vehicles on their own account, with layers of sandbags on the front of the hull as protection against mines and anti-tank rockets.

Building and painting tips

Wash the parts free of release agent, cut off the casting blocks and sand them with respiratory protection; glue them with super glue. Put a primer on and paint with an airbrush. A dry brush, dust pigments and earthy washes will bring the texture of the bags out.

Who the set is for

  • modelers building American equipment from Vietnam
  • makers of dioramas with Cold War themes
  • more experienced builders used to working with resin
  • anyone after realistic field fittings on equipment

This is a resin accessory, not a model of the vehicle in its own right. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
