M50

[Sherman 18]

This is my parts box M50 everything has come from my parts box. I have no photo of a reall M50 looking like this but, to me just some thing different. Upper and lower hull are from Italeri, all the the other from DML. Just have to brak out the On The Mark PE and then to the fun of painting.

Hi Sherman,

You have a good start. Although most of the M50 were built around welded M4A4 hulls, sure there are some oddballs from the early years of the project:

For more info I suggest you to check the book ´Lioness & Lion of the Line` by Dr.Robert Manasherob.
Cheers,

Juliano

What is the blue stuff? Is it a particular brand of putty or 2 part putty?
