AR88058 - M4A3E2 casting symbols (Accurate casting symbols for COBRA KING and others)

RESIN ON CLEAR DECAL FILM. Enough for one COBRA KING and alternate tanks with spares, extras and options. All symbols are resin cast onto clear decal film and apply like regular decals under the paint. Exhaustive research guarantees that your model's foundry symbols are correct unlike those that come on kit parts, none of which are correct.

The set also includes extra numbers with instructions so you can customize your model to make it completely unique.

RESIN ON CLEAR DECAL FILM. Sheet comes with 89.7 linear inches (228 cm) of .040 inch (1.02 mm) wide weld beads.

Although weld beads this perfect are rarely, if ever found on heavy armor vehicles these duplicate the "sprue/glue method" currently popular with model builders as of this writing.

Considering that Dragon doesn't provide decals for its half-track instrument panels, the Sd.Kfz.10 set is very helpful.

This is an interesting selection of products and what caught my eye is that at least one was designed in conjunction with members of this site.

For those who are currious, the M113 set was designed to cover all the various M113 models except the M106 (which there is another set for). So you can use this set to dress up the inside of a M113A1, A2, A3, or M557 and others. Just have to have some references, but as many can tell you placement is fairly standard for most of the interior stuff. Also the fact that most interior placards are somewhat standarized through all US Military vehicles means you can use elements of this set on other current vehicles. I also have to give credit to 18Bravo, another armorama member, for helping me with some key photos! Enjoy Andy
