Looks great, I really like the look of the suspension.
You either build really fast, or I'm really slow!

Just looking at the lower hull and paint, I'd have to say your paint job is as good as it gets. I have a couple of those kits, and they really great. Compare very well with TASCA (I must have six or eight M4a3e8 kits). gary |

Never fails to amaze me how you manage to paint and weather your armor completely separately as a top and bottom half. Great stuff!

My favorite Shermans are the cast hulled versions, with the hybrid being a close second. As for the tracks, the first time I ever saw them was on a couple M4a3 (76)tanks parked about twenty minutes from my front door. I want to do a Korean War Sherman with the "tiger paint". Got the Tasca kit, but not ready to attempt that paint job! gary |
