1/72 M1 Combat Car

thingiverse

1/72 Combat Car M1 perfect for wargaming enthusiasts. Remixed from m_bergman's extensive collection of 1-100 M2A4 models. The development of combat cars is notoriously complex, and things don't get any clearer when they're rebranded as light tanks. This model boasts a hull reminiscent of the M1E1, while its round turret bears an uncanny resemblance to early M1 designs. Meanwhile, the flat turret draws inspiration from a photo of the M1A1. For wargaming purposes, it will suffice, but don't expect it to impress any serious model enthusiasts. As always, m_bergman deserves our gratitude for making this possible. There's also a version cut into three pieces - left, centre and right - designed as an experiment in ease of printing. Cleaning up the model proved to be relatively straightforward, although users will need to address the seam lines later on. In the long run, it may be simpler to carefully position the supports using Simplify3d.
