- Files
These files are a collection that cover a series of 28mm models - the WW2 French Lorraine 37L armoured cargo carrier and trailer, as well as a little known but very much real fully tracked armoured personnel carrier, the Lorraine 38L.
here is a quick outline of this vehicle.

Both models have tracked trailers; the 37L includes a file for both a tarp over the cargo box of the trailers well as a fuel tanks and hoses that represent the fuel bowser used by early war French armoured divisions.
I started with direwolf's 1/100th scale model, and cut the base off, cut the tracks off into separate files, created assembly recesses and notches in the tracks and hull, added a tarp for the 37L tractor and the tarp and bowser for the 37L trailer,. I created the tow hitch for the trailer.
I did not do a test print of the 37L; I did one of the 38L, and there are no real differences between the two models except for the height of the cargo boxes. I do not own a French 28mm army, so having one redundant test print was enough for me. I did add a pic of the CAD showing the assembly of the 37L's trailer.
