This 1/35 photo-etched track bag is produced as a detail-up accessory to improve the authenticity of external stowage on French B1 bis tracked chassis models.
The Char B1 bis was a French heavy tank of the 1930s designed as a support vehicle. It combined considerable armor protection for its day with a hull-mounted short 75 mm gun alongside a turret 47 mm cannon, and it was in service during the early stages of World War II. The B1 bis prioritized armor and mobility within France's interwar armored force concepts.
The photo-etched set uses thin metal to capture crisp edges, stitch impressions, and fastening detail that plastic parts can struggle to show. Components are formed and adhered to the vehicle exterior to represent period-accurate external storage. After installation a light primer and paint are normally applied; targeted weathering highlights creases and attachment points for a convincing display finish.
An accurate photo-etched enhancement that raises the level of external stowage detail on 1/35 French B1 bis kits, aimed at modellers seeking higher realism.
