Modeling the Sherman Tank in 1/72nd Scale |
Non-Sherman
Accessories In addition to accessories designed specifically for the Sherman tank, there are a number of items designed for US armor in general. I'll try to list as many as I can find below. This page also now includes accessories for the M3 Medium tank. |
Figures |
Unlike the other lists
on this site, I am not going to list all available sets
of figures, but rather only the ones that I own and can
review. I am very particular about figures that I want to
include with my tanks, so don't be surprised if you never
see listed here sets from some popular manufacturers of
wargaming figures. A note about the ratings: the ratings should not be compared between figures that are 3D-printed, and the others that are not. In general, 3D-printed figures are going to be superior to any of the others (there are some exceptions, of course), but not all 3D-printed figures are as good as each other. Thus, 3D figures with a rating of 3 may actually be superior to non-3D figures with a higher rating. Just look at the photos yourselves, and you'll see what I mean. |
