About product

The Marder III with a Soviet gun: a detail set 1:35

A more extensive accessory from the Italian workshop of Royal Model that combines etched metal with castings. It is precisely with this vehicle that it pays off: the fighting compartment is open at the top, so the viewer sees into it, and a thin shield of etched metal replaces plastic walls of a scale equivalent of several centimeters of steel. Neither the chassis nor the hull is included.

The real subject: booty in a new coat

When in 1941 the Wehrmacht ran into Soviet tanks that its anti-tank guns could not cope with, it reached for captured 7.62 cm guns and set them on the available chassis of a light tank of Czechoslovak design. The result was a tall, narrow vehicle with no cover on top, with good firepower and wretched protection for the crew. It was committed on the Eastern Front and in North Africa and it was a typical stopgap that moved the war on from tanks to tank destroyers.

Building and painting

Bend the etched metal in a bending tool or between two razor blades and mark the edge in advance with a blunt needle along the scored line. Free the castings of casting remains and degrease them before spraying. Brass needs a primer of its own, otherwise the paint will come off it during handling. An open compartment deserves shading, because daylight falls into it from above and the walls stay dark.

Who will reach for the set

  • modelers with experience of bending etched metal
  • anyone interested in German stopgap vehicles
  • builders of Eastern Front vehicles
  • makers of display models with an open interior

FAQ

It is the German word Geschützwagen, that is gun carrier. It denoted a chassis adapted to carry a gun.

It was a captured Soviet 7.62 cm gun that the Germans adapted for their own ammunition.

Use a bending tool, or clamp the part between two straight blades. Make the bend along the marked score and press gradually.

Only with a primer first. Without one the finish rubs off during handling.
