About product

M3 Stuart light tank, 1:72, Mirage Hobby

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American M3 Stuart light tank in 1:72 scale from Mirage Hobby. The package contains sprues with plastic parts and a decal sheet. Mirage Hobby is a Polish short-run brand, so the build calls for a little more attention when fitting parts, but it offers a faithful model of a popular Allied tank.

The real subject

The M3 Stuart was an American light tank that became one of the most widespread Allied armored vehicles of the Second World War. It stood out for its speed and reliability, and British crews nicknamed it the Honey for its good driving qualities. It was deployed on many fronts, from North Africa through the Pacific to the European theater, and it also served as a reconnaissance vehicle.

Building and painting tips

Cut the small parts of this small scale out carefully and bond them with thin cement for plastic. Assemble and paint the running gear before you cover it with the fenders. Use an airbrush and a base color for painting, and create mud and dust weathering with washes and pigments. Panel and rivet detail comes alive with a light touch of a dry brush.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Allied armor
  • Modelers who build in a smaller scale for a display case or a diorama
  • Anyone interested in the classic tanks of the Second World War

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