After about a year of on-again, off-again working on this, I finally completed this Dragon M2 halftrack:
Sorry, no build pics, though if you want to see those, you can see them over on Scalemates
The M2 HB is from an RFM Sherman, the M1917A1s are half-scratchbuilt on the receivers of the M1919A4s that came with this kit. The figure is by Bravo 6, chosen mainly because it was one of the few I could find wearing the early US Army uniform but without the jacket on, which made for an easy conversion to the tropical uniform with just paint. The canteen and musette bags are Tamiya, with the bag on the seat having had its securing straps cut off and replaced with some twisted plastic strip so it looks like the bag is open — because that’s where he keeps his shaving gear, of course. The mirror is nothing more than some aluminium foil stuck to a piece of plastic card. The M1928 Thompson leaning against the driver’s seat and the ammo pouch for it are from a set of American equipment by MiniArt, while the helmet on the left rear seat is an old one from Italeri, because the MiniArt set oddly doesn’t include any M1917 helmets.
