Paul Heiser Models M24 Chaffee in HO scale.
It's a very nice model.
Hull, two tracks, turret, hatch, and gun. Easy fit.
I used different markings on them to organize the platoons.
A US Army tank battalion had a light tank company.
Five tanks per platoon, three platoons, per company, and two headquarters tanks for a total of 17.
Five tank platoon, circled white star on front and plain star on turret side.
Next platoon has US Army serial number on the side and a circle star too.

Ahh, the Chaffee...my FAVORITE allied tank of WW2.
I've only built the 1/72nd Hasagawa model (which turns out REALLY nice), especially when you some "stretched sprue" antennae...heh.
Now THIS is something I WISH that RoCo had made back in the day...that would have been fantastic!
Nice work.
Carry on.
The Paul Heiser M24 is a great kit, can be hard to get. The Chaffee itself is a very attractive little tank. Also a big favorite of mine too. I use nylon house paint brush bristle for antennas, they don't break!
