About product

Photo-etched set 1:35 for the M3A1 Lee (Voyager Model, basic guise)

It is an accessory set of photo-etched metal parts intended for a plastic kit of the American M3A1 Lee medium tank in 1:35 scale. It is not a model of a tank — the package holds no plastic parts of the hull or the turret and serves exclusively to replace and supplement details on a kit you have already bought. The basic designation matches the basic scope of the set; the exact contents of the frets and the number of parts are given in the instructions enclosed with the set. The target kit is Trumpeter 63516.

The real subject

The M3 Lee was an American medium tank of the beginning of World War II with an unusual arrangement of armament: the main gun of 75 mm caliber was mounted in a sponson on the right side of the hull with limited traverse, while a second gun of 37 mm caliber was in the rotating turret. The M3A1 version differs from the basic guise in its cast upper hull instead of a riveted one. The type was built in large numbers and served with other Allied armies as well, where it was also used under the designation Grant with a different turret.

Usage tips

The etched parts are separated with a sharp scalpel on a hard surface, not by twisting. Make the folds in a bender or between two blades, so that the edge is sharp and straight. For gluing, use cyanoacrylate glue or two-part epoxy resin — ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on metal. Degrease the metal before painting and go over it with primer, otherwise it peels. Thin pieces of fenders and grilles should be tried dry before fitting, so that they sit on the particular plastic parts.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to raise the level of detail of an M3A1 Lee kit in 1:35 scale
  • Builders of military hardware with experience of working with photo-etching
  • Anyone interested in dioramas from the fighting of World War II
  • Those who prefer thin metal fenders and grilles to thicker plastic

It is an accessory set. The plastic kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise. Before you buy, check that the set matches your kit.
