I’m making this tank because it’s so cute:)
But Tamiya’s doesn’t include FCM turret.
So I have to make it.

I made ICM’s kit before, so I measured it and drew figure.

And I assembled plastic plate based on the figure.

After that, I adjusted surface and added details.

Turret making is so difficult, but I could built hull easily and quickly.
I was tried make casting texture.
I will add more detail in turret and pe parts.

Thank you for browsing!

Welcome to the site hope your stay is a long and happy one. Your turret and chassis combination is interesting and looks good too. First time seeing this version, great job on the scratch built turret. You’ve got my attention so I’ll keep watching as you post.

Very nice work indeed! You make it look so easy… when we know it is anything but. Really like the metal gun shield for the 37mm. Keep up the wonderful work. Hope to see more of your projects!

Best Wishes from Cincinnati Ohio!

Welcome Itou! Most modelers don’t have the skills to scratchbuild a complex turret like that, but you have done it very well! Excellent job! I look forward to seeing the rest of the tank in progress.
