Description

MiniArt 35437 – Australian Stuart Mk.I, 1:35 light tank model kit

MiniArt 35437 is a self-assembly model of the Australian Stuart Mk.I – the M3 light tank used by Australian forces during the Second World War, including the Pacific campaigns. It is a new tooling with rich exterior detail.

  • Injection-moulded plastic parts
  • Photo-etched part
  • Clear sprue (periscopes)
  • Link-and-length tracks
  • Movable suspension
  • Decals for 3 marking options

Model specifications:

  • Scale: 1:35
  • Product code: 35437
  • Manufacturer: MiniArt
  • Assembled length: approx. 129 mm
  • Difficulty: intermediate/advanced

Note: the set does not include glue, paints or modelling tools. The model is intended for self-assembly.

Assembly:

The model has many small parts typical of MiniArt kits, so we recommend working calmly and dry-fitting the elements. The photo-etched part is attached with cyanoacrylate glue, and the link-and-length tracks are assembled in stages. The hatches can be shown open or closed.

We recommend applying the decals over a gloss coat, which limits the risk of decal silvering, and after drying sealing them with a matt or satin coat.

Required tools:

  • Modelling nippers
  • Modelling knife or scalpel
  • Files and sandpaper
  • Plastic cement
  • Cyanoacrylate glue (for photo-etched and small parts)
  • Precise modelling tweezers
  • Primer, brushes and modelling paints
  • Modelling wash to emphasise details
