Model Building - Italian Tanks in 1/35 scale

Mr. Alan of Smith Hill Library discusses Italian light and medium tanks of WW2, using model kits from his collection. Examples include the L6/40 and the M13/40, as well as derivatives.

I'm glad you did this video. I agree with you completely. I really enjoy building and painting the lesser-known vehicles. Italy, France, Poland, Japan etc. I feel they add a lot of spice to a display case. Not to mention, they give the builder an opportunity to use many more different colors and paint schemes. I've been building armour models for almost 40 years and feel that, after awhile. Tigers, Panthers and Shermans get boring. I'm glad more of these kits are becoming available. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for watching! Once I saw Italian armor and aircraft in the "sand and spinach" camo, I was hooked! Takes a good airbrush, though!

@@9librariespvd Yeah that is a cool camo scheme

Thanks!

the reason for Italian and French tanks being less popular is the fact that their armies had a poor track record during WWII.

[@9librariespvd]

That's a valid point. Although, Italian armor played a big role supporting the Afrika Korps. I am also drawn to models from other, smaller armies involved in WW2.
