Completed this interesting tank today. It is the Italeri 1:35th Semovente da 75/18 M40. Something different that isn't German in origin. Fun kit to build. It is well done with minimal need for clean up. As an out of the box built, the interior provides sufficeint detail for those who enjoy such and could be displayed by opening the front glacis hatches. The tank is a nice break from Panzer Grey or Olive Drab. Enjoy!

Nice Semovente! very well built and painted! I've got a doubt though: shouldn't the crew use the black leather/blue cloth equipment instead of green?
Cheers and happy modelling!

Very nice to see that someone else likes Italian subjects, so I personally appreciate your choice very much!!!
If the crew is the one coming with the tank the correct uniform colour should be sf follows:
Helmet: black dyed leather
Shirt, tie and trousers: gray-green
Coat: black dyed leather
Boots: black
Hope tyou enjoyed this thank and you'll model more Italian vehicles in a near future!!!
Ciao
Fabio
