Academy M4A3 (76)W Battle of the Bulge 1/35 Scale Model Kit

Academy M4A3 (76)W Battle of the Bulge 1/35 Scale Model Kit brings M4A3 (76)W Battle of the Bulge to your workbench in 1/35 scale. The Sherman subject offers a tracked-vehicle build centered on the turret, hull and running gear of the named version.

Planning the build

Choose the markings before planning stowage or weathering. Check that the tracks sit evenly and use a common dirt tone across the hull and display base.

Working in 1/35 scale

At this scale, small differences between rubber, bare metal and painted surfaces can help define the finished model. Plan the paintwork around the assembly sequence so enclosed areas are accessible. If the model will sit in a scene, compare its scale and finish with the companion pieces before choosing a base.

Painting and finishing

Choose the setting before committing to camouflage, markings and weathering. A small painted sample lets you compare the base shade with a wash and the dust or dirt from the planned display. Keep the heaviest deposits where the vehicle or equipment would contact the ground, and check the contrast at normal viewing distance.
