1:35 10.5 cm leFH 16 (Sf) auf Geschützwagen FCM 36 (f) is a plastic kit of a German self-propelled gun on the chassis of the French FCM 36 tank in 1:35 scale from the Ukrainian manufacturer ICM.
Responsibility details are not available.
The kit covers a self-propelled artillery improvisation that came about by seating a 10.5 cm light field howitzer on the chassis of the older French FCM 36 light tank. The result is a vehicle with a low hull, characteristic sloping surfaces at the front and a tall open superstructure in which the gun is mounted. The model is supplied as an injection-molded plastic kit, unassembled and unpainted. The particular number of parts and the contents of the box are given on the packaging.
The FCM 36 was a French light tank with markedly sloping armor plates and a diesel engine, whose chassis was later used as a carrier for artillery armament. The leFH 16 was an older 10.5 cm light field howitzer, preceding the more widespread leFH 18 in design. The joining of the two assemblies belonged to the group of improvised self-propelled mountings built on captured chassis, which were marked out by a high center of gravity, an open fighting compartment and only light armor on the superstructure.
Finish and paint the running gear and the interior of the superstructure before you close the whole up; once it is glued you will no longer reach them. Paint the wheels and the track links separately, as it makes work on the mud effects easier. An open superstructure means that you will see inside, so do not skimp there on shading and on small fittings. After the base coat lay a wash into the corners and joints, lighten the edges with a dry brush and add worn places sparingly. Use pigments for dust and mud effects on the lower part of the hull and on the running gear, grading the intensity from the bottom upward. Even the whole out with a matte varnish.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
