The M4 tank which was used in various
countries in the world. I made it with specification of the JGSDF.
As for the kit of a dragon, patience
is necessary for work of the lower hull and tracks. As for M4A3E8
of Dragon, the lower hull is the same as Italeri's VVSS. That
is cut a pedestal from the hull in order to add new HVSS suspension,
and must new positioning.
But, kit released after seems to be including a new hull part.
(A seal of "New tool" is put on that box.) The Cal.50
machine gun which this kit includes is wonderful. I used a resin
part of IMC for a gun turret. This part was released before by
PitRoad, but acquisition is difficult now. The photo etching used
Aber, Airwaves, Finemolds etc... These PE are effective at light
guard. Width of fender of right and left cuts narrowly. A board
supporting an opened maintenance hatch is added to an engine deck
of M4A3E8. Somehow, This kit makes modeler irritate. but, this
kit is a good kit if there isn't a problem of the lower hull part.
