A hard to build but very nice M10
The M10 Tank destroyer, and often referred as Wolverine, its basically an M4 Sherman chassis with a 76mm gun, by doing this the turret has to be open on the top.
The UM kit is composed of seven pine green plastic moulds and a PE set. There are a lot of little parts, some unused.
One thing with UM model kits its that its never simple the building process. Lets start with the cons:
The decal set, as in other UM kit, is a bit poor and having only lend-lease vehicle. The bigger parts often suffer of sink marks which need to be filled. The tools need to be carefully cut off from their sprue; they easily can be broken or bent. The tracks are made of plastic and being so small, its not easy to place them the wright way.
Pros: It is a quite well made kit apart from the only areas I pointed out. The interior of the turret looks very nice with the spare ammo and other stuffs.
After putting a lot of care and effort I was more than pleased with the finished model.
