As with the figures, I was amazed that all the 52 vehicles for Logistics arrived safely. I will start posting again on the forum of the Logistics diorama as I need to build one more tank.
Here are some of the models that arrived unharmed.
My last vehicle to build will be a Sherman M4A3E8 from the 4th Armored Division, Combat Command "B" under the command of Colonel Creighton Abrams. Actually, his personal tank, Thunderbolt 7. It will have the up armored kit as set forth by the directive of February, 1945, which involved extra armor plating, a .30 cal. machine gun mounted on the commander's periscope, the .50 cal. machine gun moved to the rear and another /50 cal. machine gun replacing the .30 cal. mounted in the main gun's mantlet.
I will build this last Sherman using the following two kits. No particular reason, the Dragon kit is a model of that exact vehicle, albeit with a few flaws to correct, but I just want to see how this Tasca Sherman goes together. I used the Tasca to build the basis of the M-32 B-1 ARV, that will be in the same column.
Stay tuned!

Okie Dokie Smokie! Have not seen a Bob vehicle build yet. (He has been working on figures as long as I have been on here!)

I keep predicting when it will be finished and so far, have never got it right!
Bob
I've never left Dave, but I haven't sat on the bench since August 31st, 2015, more than a year!! Felt great! I think I'll spend more time on it now!

You haven't?
Well, I just build them a little different than most! You ever hear of Henry Ford? He invented the assembly line and I copied him!

I just had to announce this! Yesterday and today I actually started building my last two M4A3E8s. One, a Dragon kit, the other a Tasca. I plan on building those two while I begin final assembly and weathering the three that were painted a couple of years ago. Just thought I'd do armor for awhile to get back in the groove! It's been since August, 2015 since I touched an exact knife. Feels right somehow! :yipee Photo posts in a few days!
