Light Tank Mark IIB

Paul Roberts

Scratchbuilt 1/35 model

With the exception of modified road wheels, idler and drive sprocket from the Universal Carrier and Model Kasten tracks, this wee tank is scratchbuilt inside and out. The basic construction material is .040 plastic sheet with many (1400) Grandt Line rivets. Drawings came from the Tank Museum via a friend who, as a professional draughtsman also did template drawings for the hull and turret panels (Thanks Sandy!). The turret interior was a bit of a mystery, but some educated guessing coupled with knowing what had to go in there, allowed me to fit everything into a sensible, if not its proper place.
