About product

M10 photo-etched turret interior 1:48 (Hauler)

A photo-etched set that sharpens up the turret interior of the American M10 tank destroyer in 1:48 scale. It is cut for the Tamiya plastic kit and it is an accessory fitted during the build, not a model in its own right.

The real subject

The M10 had an open-topped turret, because on a tank destroyer the speed of traverse and the crew's field of view came before protection. That is exactly why detailing the inside makes sense: on the finished model the interior is not hidden away but forms one of the main viewing surfaces. The vehicle was built on the chassis of the Sherman medium tank and carried a 76.2 mm gun.

Building and painting tips

An interior set has to be planned ahead. Dry-fit the turret, check where each part falls, and only then start gluing. Paint and weather the inside before you fit the top edges and the roof parts; after that a brush barely reaches in. A light interior shade, a dark wash in the corners and gentle drybrushing of the edges, which brings out the structure of the photo-etched parts, all work well. Glue with super glue in small drops, and degrease the brass and prime it beforehand.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the M10 in 1:48 scale who want to make use of the open turret
  • Modelers with experience of photo-etch and of planning the build sequence
  • Diorama builders with a crew or with the vehicle at rest
  • Anyone interested in American Second World War vehicles

This is an accessory, not a kit in its own right. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted; the base model, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

During the build of the turret. The inside is easier to paint and weather before the top edges and the roof parts go on.

Yes, the M10 turret is open at the top, so the inside stays visible on the finished model.

Cyanoacrylate super glue, applied in very small drops. Polystyrene cement will not bond brass.
