About product

M36B1 GMC (U.S. Army) (1:35)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American M36B1 GMC tank destroyer in 1:35 scale. The subject is the tank destroyer variant that combined a turret with a powerful 90 mm gun with the hull of the M4 Sherman medium tank. Check the actual package contents, the number of parts and the marking options against the manufacturer's information.

The real subject

The M36 was an American tank destroyer used in the closing stage of the Second World War, whose main weapon was a 90 mm gun capable of hitting even the heavy German tanks effectively. The M36B1 version came about by mounting a rotating turret with this gun on the hull of the M4 Sherman medium tank, which sped up production at a time of acute need for well armed tank destroyers. Machines of this version were used in the European theater in the final phase of the war. The open turret improved the crew's field of view but gave them no protection from above.

Building and painting tips

Paint and assemble the running gear, the wheels and any interior of the hull and turret before you close up the hull and fit the turret. Glue the parts with modeling cement for plastic, apply a primer before painting and spray the base camouflage with an airbrush. The open turret invites careful finishing of the interior and the crew. Once the base color is on, bring the details out with a wash and add mud and dust effects with pigments for convincing late-war weathering.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American armor of the Second World War
  • Modelers with experience of building tanks and tank destroyers in 1:35 scale
  • Anyone interested in derivatives of the M4 Sherman chassis

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The glue, the paints and the accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
