An American twenty-liter jerrycan with a bracket in 1:72 scale by Firma49 is a tiny accessory for completing military vehicles and for bringing dioramas to life.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a tiny accessory, not a vehicle model. The set contains an American twenty-liter jerrycan together with the bracket in which it was carried on vehicles, in 1:72 scale. It can be used on the cargo bed or the fender of a military vehicle, on a trailer or loose in a diorama as part of a supply post. The maker is Firma49, a brand specializing precisely in tiny accessories and fittings.
The twenty-liter jerrycan became the standard container for fuel in practically every army of the Second World War and served long after it. The American version differs from the European pattern in the shape of the cap and in the arrangement of the stiffeners on the body, which is why choosing the right type matters for a faithful model. The bracket allowed the can to be secured and removed quickly and tends to be clearly visible on the sides and rear of vehicles.
Cut the parts from the sprue gates with a sharp knife or a saw and level the mating surfaces. It is worth washing them in soapy water before painting. It pays to paint the cans separately from the vehicle and only then seat them in the bracket. Realism is helped if each piece gets a slightly different degree of wear: rubs on the edges, a dark wash into the stiffeners and light traces of rust around the cap. Lettering and markings can be suggested with a decal or a fine brush.
This is an accessory, not a kit. The vehicle model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
