USMC M1A1 Abrams


For my Marine Abrams I used the Dragon M1A1. I rebuilt the bustle rack. I had bought the Eduard set but I found the flat look of the parts not convincing, so I only used the bottom and the track retaining rings of the Eduard set. I had to scratch build the wading parts and smoke chargers. Then I decided to have a go at the extended bustle rack as it is a rather prominent feature on a Marine tank. Side bins and wheels came from the Revell kit.
