OSPREY MODELLING No 4 M3/M5 STUART LIGHT TANK

Complete guide to building, detailing, converting and customising the models available, for a wide range of modelling abilities. The M3 and M5 Stuart were the most significant light tanks of the US Army, as well as many other allied armies, during World War II. They have proved to be popular modelling subjects ever since, largely due to the large number of kits available in many different scales covering a broad selection of the different variants used. The Stuarts were also painted in a wide range of colourful camouflage schemes, reflecting their widespread service, and this adds to their appeal. This title shows a number of different ways to model this popular tank in 1:35 scale, covering construction, painting and weathering the vehicle.
