About product

Firma49 1:72 - lifting eyes for the Cromwell tank

An add-on set in 1:72 scale from Firma49. It contains lifting eyes for the British Cromwell tank, that is the small fittings by which the vehicle or its parts were slung during workshop handling. The set belongs to the model you are building and is not a kit on its own.

The real subject

The Cromwell was a British cruiser tank of the Second World War, powered by the Meteor aircraft engine derived from the Merlin. It stood out for its speed and, together with other types, formed the backbone of British armored units after the landings in Normandy. Its hull and turret carry a number of small fittings, which easily disappear while a model is being built.

Why small fittings are worth replacing

In 1:72 scale an eye on a plastic part is often molded as a solid lug without an opening, because a mold cannot hold a finer shape. A separate part with the shape properly defined draws more attention on such a small model than large areas do. Before gluing, carefully cut the original lug away with a scalpel and level the area, so that the new part sits flush. Compare the position against a drawing beforehand, because once the plastic shape is removed no guide is left on the hull.

Who the accessory is for

  • For builders of British equipment in 1:72 scale
  • For modelers who enjoy improving small details
  • For anyone interested in vehicles from the fighting in Western Europe
  • For those who build several examples of one type and want to tell them apart by the quality of the detail
