About product

A detail set for the Sherman M4 A3 in 1:35 scale

The Italian brand Royal Model prepared this accessory for modelers who want to give the American M4A3 Sherman medium tank in 1:35 scale the fineness that an injection mold cannot offer. It covers the small items on the hull and the turret, where thin edges and crisp shapes decide the overall impression. It assumes that you already have the basic model under construction. It follows the dimensions of the Tamiya kit.

A few words about the real subject

The M4A3 differed from the other Shermans in its powerplant: the Ford GAA gasoline eight-cylinder engine, designed specifically for tank use and therefore lower than the radial aircraft engines of the first production runs. It was this version that American units fighting in Europe received first, and it became the most widespread variant of the closing stage of the war. Later examples carried the longer 76 mm gun, a redesigned front plate with larger hatches for the driver and HVSS suspension with wide tracks.

Working with the accessory and the finish

Before you seat anything, degrease the parts and try dry how they fit. Hold the small pieces with tweezers and dose the glue with the tip of a wire so that it does not run over the surrounding surface. An olive finish comes alive when you lighten the upper surfaces and run a dark wash into the recesses; pigments will suggest a dusty running gear.

Who the set suits

  • Builders of Allied vehicles from the Western Front
  • More experienced modelers used to miniature parts
  • Makers of dioramas where the tank stands in the foreground of the scene
  • Collectors of the Sherman family in 1:35 scale

The set is supplied unpainted. Paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is an accessory for a model that you build from another kit in 1:35 scale.

Above all in the engine: it carried the Ford GAA gasoline eight-cylinder developed for tanks, and it was the most widespread type in American units in Europe.

Working with very small parts calls for tweezers, calm and at least basic experience of building armor.

For the Tamiya kit in 1:35 scale. The base kit is not included in the package.
