Australian (Italian) M13/40, Italeri, 1:35

Post by carlos kgr »

Hi! this is my first post on armor, here is a model I just finished a few weeks a go. It's a Italeri kit for the M13/40 that a friend found on a yard sale along with several others and passed on to me. The kit was badly assembled so I dissembled what I could and re assembled again, made a few pieces out of scratch and finished as a captured tank.

I second that. It's a charming vehicle and so well asembled. More pictures please.

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!

Nicely done, a good salvage job, beats my work in to a cocked hat!
My research indicates that the tanks lost during the Compass campaign were all painted Italian Army Green rather than Sand.
