Hi, I present to you a vehicle of the South Lebanon Army (SLA) named Kilshon, made some time ago already. All white parts are scratch, made in plastic card. For information on the differents versions of the Sherman used in ALS, I wrote a page here: als.miniature.perso.neuf.fr/als.sherman.html I hope you like it! Julie NB: I hope posting in the correct category.

That's some nice scratch-work Julie, definitely gives a whole different look to the Sherman base vehicle.

Wow! I thought I had at least seen all of the oddball Sherman variants...guess I was wrong! That scratch work is top notch. Great stuff!

Definitely the right category (it would fit into some modern armor category too, but this is surely a major conversion). What a nice job, Julie. It does't look that small

Hi all, All your compliments make me very happy. thank you I like build the original vehicles that we do not often see! DickyF @: I built one model at 1/35 a few years ago. A Tiran 5 from Trumpeter with special camouflage ALS. I used the technique of coarse salt for presented the peeling paint. More pics: als.miniature.perso.neuf.fr/tiran5.roxane.html Dupes @: If you want to see other variants of a Sherman eccentrics, you will not be disappointed with the Mar-290 in IDF version. Also built by me. On this link, I put other picture and made a little history of the vehicle: www.tsahal-miniature.com/sherman.mar.290.html Julie

Oh Julie,
these Shermans seem to have a lot of tiny, tinyyyy details. Too tiny for me, but nice to watch anyway.
Great work!

Really cool builds! Is this a kind of Katyusha on the Sherman? All in 1/72 scale (so way too small for my old eyes... )?

Hi, Thank you all for your comments. Yes, these models are very small, and I've even made smaller (1/87 scale) with differents models as a Puma with doghouse (IDF versions) , fully scrath building. Thomas_M @ : The name of the missile on the Sherman is a Shrike with propellant and used as anti-radar missile. Julie

Thank you guys for your support! Tojo72 @: scratch building is not very complicated, just to start slowly and after that comes alone... Julie

Julie
At that scale the quality of the builds certainly puts you in a class all your own, you need to get into some shows and win some gold. It is certainly different seeing a girl who is a master military scratch builder doing AFV conversions, a pleasure to see.

Thank you all for your compliments and encouragement. I've never participated in a competition shows, maybe one day ..... For cons, I've do several times as the judge and isn't easy to decide who will take the gold medal!
