I see.
About M1A3, it still in concept rite?
Most know now is M1A2 Sep Tusk II.


Interest to buy another M1 tank?

it chloroform cement. it wont stick your hand but when u apply in plastic, it reaction & melt the plastic.
recoment to use Mr Cement. It simple to apply, Put 2 pieces together then apply a layer of the gap/ joinment, firm it for 3-5min, it will stick hard.


Mr metal primer need apply to Metal or PE (photo etch) surface bfore apply paint.

tamiya cement (white cap more thinner layer than orange cap) for u to glue accessories on the tank.
Normal, Tank & accessories need to separately paint to achieved good effect. after paint, u can use this Tamiya cement to glue all small accessories.  U can apply the cement (as putty) in the Gun barrel & let it dry. after dry u can sand it to remove the seam line.   

Mr Mark setter allow u to melt the decal (no need to toap coat) to the paint.


beli satu bottle each can use very long, except the tamiya cement, which it dry very fast compared to other cement.

Yes I think, cuz is model kit, not completed model.
