I feel bad that I haven’t been around much, so I thought I’d share my latest. It’s the Eduard ProfiPACK M4A1 Sherman. This will be featured in an upcoming issue of Military Modelcraft International.
Hope you enjoy!

This is my second project for the year. I finished this two weeks ago. I'm currently writing up an article for Military Modelcraft International. This also took first place in allied closed top armor 1945 and earlier at the Indianapolis IPMS show.

I was fortunate to see them both at the show last weekend. Not surprised it grabbed first place in Allied WWII category... lucky it was scared of my StuG across the table. LOL

I liked to wore out the scroll button on my lap top looking at the two Shermans. Had I to pick one, it would have been the one with the cast hull.

It would be a good gesture on this board to create a separate Sherman thread to answer the zillion questions, and help the novice in his builds. There's a lot of skill and knowledge here
