Stuart M3 Finalizing Engine Details and Rear Armour Plating pt 9

In this episode, we dive into the finishing touches for our Minart Stuart M3 light tank build in 1/35 scale. Our primary focus will be on completing all the minor parts of the engine. We'll carefully attach any remaining components, ensuring each piece fits perfectly and adds to the overall authenticity of the model.
Next, we'll address some necessary repainting to enhance the realism and correct any previous paint imperfections. This step is crucial for achieving a polished and cohesive look for the engine bay.
Finally, we'll add some of the armor plating on the rear of the tank. This addition not only boosts the model's accuracy but also enhances its visual appeal. Join us as we meticulously work through these final details, bringing our Stuart M3 light tank closer to completion.

When you add details or paint that you know, no one is ever going to see, you will know it's there. That's all that matters.
You're doing a great job building this. I'm looking forward to you working with the photo etched pieces. Like the screen you just did. I've never worked with it before so it's kinda intimidating. Is that black glue a special thing for PE parts? If so, where can you buy it?
Also, what is that chemical you washed the screen in? Is that something needed for PE parts? Like i said, I'm new to photo etched parts.
Thank you for your videos on this kit, your knowledge and experience as well. It's very much appreciated.
