Ok, here's what I have, Dragon's M3 GMC75. Going to use all this Griffon PE and the chevron tires left over from the M2A1 I did last year.
Just have to pick a subject, going to be from North Africa for sure, I think I'm pretty safe saying this dueled in the sun during Operation Torch. I'm sure someone can check me on that if i'm wrong. Will update with I start cutting sprues and sniffin' glue.. :face: (that's the nontoxic Tanex7 variety for those who are humorless).
I've got it primed now but have some other stuff to add to it, think this is about all the soldering I'm going to do.
I got started on this in earnest yesterday. Looking over the 4 separate sets of instructions and trying to figure out which way to go, I thought I would start with what looked to be the most difficult. The Gun Mount.
I have one question for those in the know about Halftracks. KEN!!!
I see that Dragon and Griffon instructions call for the optical site to be installed but from the looks of the assembly, the gun is modeled in travel mode, locked down or stowed. Was the optical site permanently mounted?? I thought there was a stowage location on the gun shield for the site.
