This is one of the most
original detail sets I've seen in a long time. Many
Shermans operated by the British or Commonwealth armies
(and subsequently Poland as well) had externally mounted
smoke dischargers on the turret sides. Typically, these
were mounted on tanks that did not have the internal
2" smoke mortar installed, but I've seen some photos
of vehicles that had both. I'm not sure if any of the
plastic Sherman kits have ever included these mounts?
This set includes two double mounts, so enough for a
single tank (one double mount on each side of the
turret). The barrels are short segments of brass tube,
and the trigger/receiver assemblies are 3D-printed in
resin. Some of the trigger guards are either broken or
not completely printed, but really, who's complaining?
These are amazingly small and fine parts, and are going
to look superb mounted on a kit. I love this set.
