Hi,
This is the first thread I start here so let´s see what heppens
Here are some pics of my WIP Sherman it is a 3rd Tank Battalion´s D Company M4A2. The references came from the book ´Tank Warfare on Iwo Jima` by Mr.David Harper.
The base kit is Dragon M4A2 Tarawa, the dark green parts are left overs from a Tasca Firefly. I´ve done both the drum-style intake and root exhaust from sheet styrene, the rebar rail is also plastic rod.
I do not plan to display it with the drums in place. AFAIK, it will be necessary to seal the gun mount and ventilators to correctly display it, so I´m just using them for my own reference.
This is my WIP so far. Next I would like to add some jerry can racks but not sure about it´s placement and style configuration.
That´s all for now. Hope you enjoy it also please let me know what you think and how I could improve it.
Best regards,
Juliano![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
