Next? IF I were able to do this I would be totally satisfied with it as is, you're doing more!?

What Jeff said....SWEET! :notworthy (y)
 
What can I say about this Sherman?

I love it because in this one the contrast between the rusted and painted parts is vivid and for me, incredibely atractive. The yellowish parts really makes the diference.

My admiration
 
Thanks all for the wonderful comments.
I had to take a break and charge the camera so nothing else has been done, except writing the article for this build. Hoping to get some bench time today in between shoveling snow AGAIN. Ken stopped by this am and plowed the drive way, man what a great guy.

I was a fly on the wall and spent the morning with you at your bench Rob (y)
The bird made me a little nervous but it was warmer than outside. :D

Appreciate the time you've spent doing the videos for us my friend.
Tony Lee:)
 
Hey Rob,

I'm just getting in now, hope you didn't have to shovel too much.

I shoulda' banged on the door and asked to see this one in person, this thing is sick! Awesome friggin stuff man.

:ro:
 
I'm speechless :idonno :ro:

I plan on watching the video's Sunday morning so as not to be interupted.

Tony, Ken and Tim...thanks guys.
Toni good thing the cat was out of the room, she's got a thing with flies :lol: Thanks for checking out the videos.
Ken...you should have bro. We were busy packaging when you came by, so I couldn't run out the door, sorry bro.

Work on this Sherman has gotten veeerrry slow, having prob's up loading the vids to youtube. Now I'm back at the bench again, need to finish this model soon and start the next one [BTR70].

Thank you one and all for your wonderful feedback, much appreciated.

After several layers of various shades of rust weathering, here is where it stands at the moment.

Some touch ups to do on the rust areas, then it's time to start the weathering.
