About product

Light guards US Sherman 1:72 (Firma49)

This is a finely 3D-printed accessory from the Czech manufacturer Firma49, not a standalone model. The set brings the thin protective guards (cages) that shielded the headlights of the American Sherman tank from damage in the field. The parts are printed to 1:72 scale and are almost as thin as photo-etched parts, so they replace the coarser plastic version from an ordinary kit.

What the set is for

  • A realistic rendering of the protective light guards on Sherman models
  • A replacement for thicker or missing guards from the original kit
  • Refining the front end of the tank in 1:72 scale
  • Suitable for collectors and diorama builders alike

Usage tips

Carefully separate the very thin parts from the print carrier with a sharp knife and clean them up lightly. Glue them with a small amount of cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), ideally using tweezers. Degrease the parts before painting and apply a primer; then blend them in with the color of the tank and a light wash.

Who it is for

  • Modelers of American Sherman tanks in 1:72 scale
  • Builders who want to replace coarse plastic parts with finer ones
  • More experienced modelers used to tiny parts

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

Thin 3D-printed protective guards (cages) for the headlights of a Sherman tank model in 1:72 scale. It is not a standalone model.

The 3D-printed parts are markedly thinner and more faithful, close to photo-etched parts, so the front end of the tank looks more realistic.

Once separated from the carrier and cleaned up, glue them with a small amount of cyanoacrylate glue, ideally using tweezers.
