Well Rob , you've passed , ......... :laugh:


This is a stellar build with much to learn from and the vids are excellent !!!
 
Thanks for the comments folks.

I do occasionally do an intact vehicle, but not so often anymore.

This one is nearly done and I'm planning the next on already.

Not quite sure what'll be yet.

Thanks Tim

After applying some very light dusting I went and added some final rusting rusting with rust toned pigments from MIG Productions. I also added the 9th and final video to my channel...well atleast I think it's the last one :hmmm

Some pics for ya.

I've got a small simple spot to display it Rob. I can at least do that much for you buddy.;)

Dang that's nice

The attention to detail, like the shadow where the boogie was, that really sets it apart from the pack Rob.
 
Such an excellent work! ... I´ve been for several minutes looking to your kit and I always find new details, new textures ... absolutely stunning.

For me, your best kit to date
 
Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments. Bob thank you sir.

After being a bit side tracked on this project with an M4a1 halftrack, thanks Ken, I got to work on the base for the Sherman. Wanting to keep it simple, I made the asphalt look a bit old and in not so good shape, kinda like my driveway :laugh: .
A few items were placed near the Sherman just to fill the space, but not cluttering the base and detracting from the model. Still some work to do on the extras now that everything is dry and will not fall off the base.Here is how it all looks as of last night.

I'll bet lunch you'll be taking something home from the Nats with that model. Love it Rob, looking forward to seeing it in April
 
Very very cool!!! Who ever is going to restore this one has their work cut out for them.
