Errr, Actually, the box top has been poped for some time. It's one of those with a major mistake so it went back in the box deal.
I picked up another kit, and will rebuild the lower hull again!

Ok, here we go, I started this build a couple of years ago. I got a lot done on the project only to find out I had used the wrong Transmission housing on this particular tank. I was going off the cover of Squadrons Sherman in action book and had used Formations late sharp nosed housing.  While the build was ongoing, I was also researching the markings for Archer Transfers. That’s when the picture I have posted at the beginning of this thread showed up. You can clearly see that this particular Sherman had the early cast Transmission housing. So, wanting to be accurate, the only thing to do was start over with the build. I put it away for a while and concentrated on other projects. With The Cobra King done, It’s time to pull this one back out. The hull on the left is the new build, while the one on the right is the original build.  The bogie units salvaged from the original build. Along with my son’s Christmas ornament he was repairing at my bench. ( kids always know where my superglue is, LOL)  And this is this last week ends progress.   |
