I jumped forward in the PTO to what is arguably the bloodiest battle the Marines fought. Iwo Jima. Three Battalions of tanks participated in the battle, the 3rd 4th and 5th Battalions all had different views on modifying the tanks for greater safety. "Demagog" is a M4A2 early as used by D Company of the 3rd Tank Battalion on Iwo Jima.      This is the DML M4A2 early kit with the basic mods from sheet and rod. The real tanks had square applique plates added as well as a rebar rail running around the engine deck. The wading gear is by Tank Workshop. G |

Cool looking... nice paint work as I noticed different green color on those additions as they were not applied at the factory or something like that?
Please tell us if there is a Sherman variant you haven't done yet? LOL

Thank You Gentlemen!
I am back on the nightwatch so I write this from my office in beautiful downtown Las Vegas.
Andy yes the addons were painted a different shade of green, most likely what the crews could steal, ahem, procure from the Navy.
There are a few Shermans I haven't yet built, not many though..................
