Unpainted Resin Set for Tamiya/Italeri Jeeps10 Pieces (Jeep Not Included!) These are many other 1/35, 1/48, 1/72 Sets Available: So Please Check our other listings. Value Gear Details: For about 2 years now I have been working on a range stowage items. So far I have made sets of Universal/Generic Tent tolls and crates for 1/72 1/48 1/35 scales, and have some Army and War specific sets in 1/35 scale and will soon have some in 1/72 as well. Universal/Generic Definition: Stowage items that should work on most vehicles from a covered wagon to a WWII sherman tank to an modern Humvee... "Any Army Any Era" is what I am trying to create. Universal/Generic items do not include any weapons or details to identify them to a specific army or time period. They may not work on every model but with so much variety you should be able to find a piece to fit in whatever space on whatever kit you are working on. Since the pieces are so versitile, They can be good for Gaming as well as model building, I have seen pictures of Value gear on - forge world and games workshop tanks, WWI dioramas, WWII dioramas, Modern Dioramas, Post apoctolyptic zombie fighting cars, sci fi dioramas and look forward to what people will send me next. Value Gears Goal: My Goal is to give your spares box and models more variety of stowage combinations. Tired of looking in your spares box and finding 3 or 4 of the exact same tarp roll? Me too, that is why I started Value Gear Details!!! Every set of Value Gear contains unique rolls, bundles, and packs only available in that set, not any duplicates from other sets. Giving the most variety and choices for your builds. Casting and Appearence: These sets are unpainted resin cast pieces for use on model kits. All parts are now cast in medium gray resin. It really shows the details and helps you to see the part better for modifying or filling the occasional air bubble. Resin parts should be cleaned and primed before painting. Clean Up: Value Gear stowage sets take less cleanup than alot of other after market resin sets. No giant pour plugs to cut off, a little scraping with X-acto and a light sanding and it is ready to glue to your kit or diorama. We do not use mold release. A little wash with soapy water is recomended for best results. Good Tip For Tents and Tarps: Bending Resin: drop a few of the tent and tarp rolls into a coffee cup and pour in some boiling water, after 60 seconds or so, fish a piece out with some tweezers and the parts will easily bend to conform to a fender or turret curve. It's a great way to customize your bits for your vehicle. Thicker or larger resin pieces may take a little more time, so practice a bit. This trick works with most types of resin. Painting: after cleaning and bending, I like to prime (Testors, Games Workshop, Army Painter or any other handy spray primer) then paint with (Testors, Tamiya, and Vallejo acrylic paints) and then wash (Games Workshop Washes, or washes made from Artist Oil Paints). Sherman Engine Deck & Stowage Sets Tips, Suggestions and Info: I have tried to make these Sherman sets as versatile as possible, all of these sets were built on the Tamiya M4A3 75 mm Kit #35250. The Tamiya kits are good quality and some of the most common and most affordable Shermans on the market. The sets will fit the Tamiya 75mm like a glove as well as those listed here which have the exact same upper hull. I shaved a couple pins off the hull to make it smooth and easier to work with. M4A3 75 mm Kit #35250 - 105 mm Kit #35251 - Jumbo Kit #35139 My Friend Dave (Dublin’s resident Sherman nut) brought a column of Shermans to a club meeting one night, including several variants from Tasca, Dragon/DML, Italeri , Academy and a couple of Kit Bashed Franken-Shermans made from all kinds of kits and spare parts. The sets fit pretty well with very little effort. Shaving a couple pins off the hull, drilling a couple holes in the bottom of the resin bits, a little sanding or scraping, the usual light work that us modellers always do and are not afraid of. Turret Stowage: The Turret Stowage pieces are flat and the reason for this is to keep the set cheap and easy to cast as well as give the modeller the choice of putting it on the rounded side of a turret or onto a flat spot of the hull or a halftrack or truck. Most of these turret stowage bits have field modifications (welded on bars of all shapes and sizes) incorporated into the tarp rolls and if you toss them in a coffee cup and pour in a little boiling water, fish out the piece with tweezers after 20-30 seconds it will be flexible and you can just form it to the turret. Hold it in place until it is cool and it will retain that curve/shape. Then you can paint it and glue it back on later. It might take a couple tries to get it just right on your turret, but the hot water does not hurt the resin so soak it as many times as you need to make it fit perfectly. Adding Stowage Tie down Ropes: Once you have the engine deck piece in just the right spot you can put your tie down ropes in place and make a couple marks on the resin to show where the ropes will be. Using a small triangle file you can make some slight indentions where the ropes will cross the stowage and give it a realistic tied down look.
