1/35 Italeri "Fury" Sherman


This is a nice easy model to build. It is a reasonably accurate late build M4A3E8 Sherman. The tank in the movie Fury was supposed to be one of these, but due to availability of tanks for the movie, "Fury" was actually an M4A2E8. The most obvious difference is the engine grille, but once loaded with stowage (which Italeri has done well) only the "Shermanoholics" would notice. This model with stowage and decals builds up onto a fairly convincing replica of Fury. It includes the post WW2 T84 type tracks, which were fitted to the movie tank. The parts fit is good, careful fitting, at least on mine, required no use of filler. The decals were fine, and no carrier film was evident after laying them over gloss clear. Both .30 and .50 cal guns are included, as is the German helmet and gasmask, logs, jerry cans, ammo boxes, bucket and various boxes and crates. If there are any "faults" in the kit, they mostly lie in the instructions. Don't apply white stars to Fury, and don't fit the guards over the drivers and assistant drivers hatches, the instructions call them out, Fury had neither. That, and the stowage is not 100% correct, but close enough, and the spare track fitted on the front glacis panel for driver protection, is the wrong type. Italeri provides some track from Fury's HVSS suspension and bogie/wheel type, but the movie tank had a section of the older VVSS suspension. Not that the average builder would notice, or care. I did, but that's me. Overall, this kit goes together well, looks the part, and with a little fettling and attention to detail, will make a convincing replica rivaling Tamiya/Taska kits (which don't have logs and much stowage) for well under half or third the price. The decals are few, but accurate (except the tanks platoon number, but its only seen for a second in the movie, and is hard to read), and the rubber tracks can be made to look convincing. If you are a fan of Fury, and can't justify spending big $$$, this model kit is for you. You won't be disappointed : )Read full review...

Fury

Had great fun building this kit, especially as Fury is one of my favourite tanks!

It went together well and was enjoyable to paint (I used an airbrush for the base coat & camouflage but a fine brush for the details).

For me, the feature that really finished this model off compared to most were the additional accessories such as the logs on the side and boxes etc on the rear.

I would recommend this kit, especially if you are looking for a detailing challenge!Read full review...

This kit is very accurate and matches in detail, the equipment stowed on the vehicle throughout the movie. Model makers love accuracy so I'm very happy to build this well made model.
