Here is the Mirage 1/72 Mirage M-3 Stuart. It together well. I had to cut two track links out of each one to get it to fit right. It was built box stock other than the return guides on top of the suspension Assembly's. I made those out of scrape PE. I really like this Mirage kit. Any and all comments are valued.

Hi Matthew,
Your Stuart's looking good I must say. I just started mine today and I am too qiute pleased with it so far Will you put yours on some base? 1:35 single figure base will fit him alright Nice little kit and it's really tiny, just Sweet :-)
Cheers
Greg

Thanks Greg. Yes I think a base would really help. I look forward to seeing how yours turns out too. I also have the Mirage M3A3 I look to build before long.

Hi Matt,
That little M3 looks great, looking to get one myself. I've done the Mirage Pz.IV C and have the D to do, they are nice kits that with a little bit of work you can have a very good model.

Wow that's a cool little model and very small. I build 1/35 armor exclusively and wasn't aware of how small that scale is...

Thanks for the comments. I usually do 1/35 also. I just like Stuarts. One thing I forgot to mention is that I used the decals from the old Hasegawa 1/72 Stuart. I thought the Mirage kit decals looked a little big.
